The juniors of Dénia Basketball distressed of the Federation Cup for the Nou Basquet Castelló B
It could not be and, despite the great effort made by the juniors of Dénia Basketball, they got off the Junior Federation Cup when they fell against the Nou Básquet Castelló B by 58 to 56. The girls, directed by Juan Luis Pérez, played at a great level although they were always in tow on the scoreboard.
The greater physical potential under the boards of Castellón and some arbitration decision, such as the fifth foul indicated to the local Carmen Coll, were the key to a dignified defeat. During some phases of the match, the locals came to approach 4 points of their rival. But the elimination of Coll's fouls when 5 remained for the final minute was a very heavy burden on the premises. Coll until then was the top scorer of Dénia Basketball, with 14 points.
Note that the public filled the Joan Fuster pavilion to the flag in this match that served to close the quarter-final day. Fans who did not stop cheering for the Dianenses girls, but this was not enough to defeat a great team such as the Nou Básquet Castelló B.
