Live pelota, 2nd-4th April: Pairs Championship Final

After three months of sporting drama, the Pairs Final is upon us. I would like to apologise in advance for the fact that I will not be able to watch it. I’m going to Belgium all week with my bike, to watch the Tour of Flanders among other things, and it is unlikely that I will be able to produce a match report before I return home on the 9^th. In my absence, you can check the result by going to http://www.pelotalive.com, or indeed by watching it live. Broadcast information for the final, as well as the Easter weekend’s other matches, is given below.

Friday 2^nd April, Quintanar de la Sierra

22:25 (CET) APEZETXEA – CECILIO v CABRERIZO II – GALARZA VI

23:30 (CET) MARTINEZ DE IRUJO – GONI III v TITIN III – PASCUAL

Saturday 3^rd April, Zarautz

18:00 – 20:05 (CET) MENDIZABAL II v ARGOTE Second Tier Manomanista

Followed by: BERASALUZE VIII – APRIAZ v OLAIZOLA II – OTEIZA

Sunday 4^th April, Vitoria-Gasteiz

The exact television schedules are not yet out for the Pairs Final on Sunday, and as I will not be around to post this when they are, I will have to tell you what I can deduce. The broadcast begins at 17:00 (CET), which is when the first, curtain raising, match of the evening begins. I assume therefore that the schedule is as follows:

17:00 (CET) TITIN III – EULATE v BENGOETXEA VI – OTXANDORENA

C. 18:00 (CET) GONZALEZ – LASKURAIN v XALA – ZUBIETA Pairs Championship Final
