The pair of Alejandro and Hilari, competing under the name of the Ajuntament de Montserrat, have reached the semi-finals of the Copa Caixa Popular d’escala i corda Pro1 after beating Mario, Gimeno and Joan Arbona (Ajuntament de Riba-roja) 60-40 at the trinquet de Pelayo in València on Saturday 17 October.

The match opened with the Montserrat pair ahead (35-30); Riba-roja closed the gap, but the red pair pulled away (45-35) and reached 50-40. They then stepped up to take the game with a four-game advantage (60-40).

It is the second confirmed place in the last four: Giner and Tomàs II (Murla-La Vall de Laguar) had booked theirs on Friday at the trinquet de Vilamarxant, beating Diego, Salva and Carlos (Almussafes) 60-45. The third quarter-final was scheduled for Sunday at the trinquet de Burriana and the Pedreguer tie has been moved to Tuesday 20 because of the weather warning.

In galotxa, Mondefruta Montserrat A lead group B of the Primera Carrer of the 40th Interpobles Gran Premi Edicom on six points with a game in hand after the sixth round. Mondefruta Montserrat B sit fourth in group A on four points, also with a game in hand. The match between Faura A and Massalfassar A was suspended.

The seventh round, to be played next weekend, pairs Mondefruta Montserrat A with CPV Borbotó at the carrer de pilota in Montserrat.

The municipal carrer de pilota hosted in July the eight school finals of the regional galotxa championship, where Mondefruta Montserrat were crowned benjamín (under-10) champions.
