Capoue, Jackson and Terrats signed autographs on the opening day of the important Easter tournament
The Yellow Cup Easter has kicked off! This Friday saw the start of the most important Easter tournament in the province of Castellón, which will be held until Sunday in eight venues, spread over three locations in the province of Castellón.
This is a huge event that will bring together more than 15,000 people from 6th to 9th April in our province, including players, coaches and family members. A football festival in which 3,500 participants will play and in which 224 teams will compete in 10 different age groups, six in 7-a-side football and four in 11-a-side football.
In addition to Villarreal CF, who act as hosts, top-level clubs such as Liverpool FC and Borussia Dortmund are competing, but also some of the most important youth teams in LaLiga, such as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Sevilla FC, Real Sociedad, CA Osasuna and Levante UD. As if that were not enough, the tournament brings together teams from a wide variety of countries, such as the United States, Japan and Israel, among others.
The tournament will be played in different venues: the José Manuel Llaneza Training Ground, the Pamesa Cerámica Training Ground, the CEM Pau Francisco Torres and the Flors Foundation football pitch, in Vila-real; the Intursport football pitch, the Torre San Vicente football pitch and the Carrerasa football pitch, in Benicàssim; and the municipal football pitch in Orpesa del Mar.
Visita al Estadio de la Cerámica
Visit to the Estadio de la Cerámica
If playing their matches at the Submarine’s facilities is already a prize for the youngsters who come to Vila-real to compete in this tournament, even more so is the visit to the remodelled Estadio de la Cerámica.
The participants will have the opportunity to complete a tour of the most exclusive areas of the Villarreal stadium: the press room, the dugouts, the changing rooms where the players change before each match and, most exciting of all, the pitch of one of the fields where LaLiga Santander matches and the most prestigious European competitions are played.
As if that wasn’t enough, the participating teams will have the opportunity to enjoy Villarreal B vs Málaga, corresponding to the Gameweek 35 of the LaLiga SmartBank season, which will be played this Friday at 9pm CEST at the Estadio de la Cerámica.
In addition, the Yellows have organised other activities outside of the competition itself, such as the opening party, the welcome party, the fanzone, attractions at the different campuses and the closing ceremony.
