Next Sunday, February 11, El Pantano will make a grand entrance to lift the Villa team’s spirits for their first home match. They face Valencia RC, a squad that split their first two rounds with one win and one loss. The visitors arrive in Villajoyosa at 12:30 hoping to upset the home crowd and spoil the occasion for the locals.

For Huesitos La Vila Rugby Club, coach Falu Quirelli notes that the squad is ready, excited, and hungry for their first home game. He emphasizes that the match will be a true test with equal chances for both sides. From the club president Guillem Carrion comes a heartfelt appeal to fans: every supporter should pack the stadium this Sunday. He recalls the Madrid game, where the team felt the powerful boost from the stands and believes their presence can light the way at home as well.

Beyond El Pantano, the schedule for round three of this promotion league includes a key home fixture as leaders Liceo Francés host Universitario de Bilbao. Getxo Málaga and Zarautz da Las Rozas are also in action to complete the weekend’s lineup for national rugby honors.

The elite group currently sits with Liceo Francés at the top, having won both of their opening matches. A victory over Alicante in the first round followed by a win over Valencia, when the team visited La Vila in the third round, keeps them perched in first place. This weekend also saw Industriales de Madrid, Getxo, and Málaga RC secure wins, shaping the table underneath the leaders.
