More than a decade later, Real Valladolid will have a women’s team again. A senior, from the hand of Villa de Simancas, but also, for the first time, a quarry structurewhich will integrate three sets of formative age: youngest, fry and children. “It’s a very important day for the club”David Espinar, director of the presidential cabinet, explained at the presentation press conference.
As the leader confessed, the new female project is “above all social, beyond the competitive”. Not in vain, the intention is “that the girls grow up and that there is a strong club, like others, that do a very respectable job, and that they have a new alternative” dyed in white and purple. So those girls they will have three teamsto which they will be able to choose through the tests that will be done between the 20th and 24th of this month.
To this must be added that senior team led by Villa de Simancas, with whom they have signed a three-year agreement “very similar” to the one signed with basketballby virtue of which the female squad of the Franjiblanca entity will be called Real Valladolid Simancaswill wear the official Pucela kit and their matches, as far as possible, will be played at the Zorrilla facilities.
Alfonso González, Simanquin presidentthanked Real Valladolid for reaching out to him “to start a very important project for the club, the city and the province”, which in their structure face with total “seriousness and maximum responsibility”. “We hope to be able, together, to take this project to the top,” said the president, who acknowledged that the squad will be made up of 22 players.
Its coaching staff will be the current one, made up of five members, from whose hands Villa de Simancas is trying to ascend to the First Regional and fifth national step. In case of doing so, the intention, as González confessed, is to “create a subsidiary” and restructure this initial idea, in order to provide more competitive resources to the senior part of this new ‘leg’ of Real Valladolid. The objective: reach the national category “in two or three years”.
It should be remembered that, before this operation, from the offices of Zorrilla sought to carry out this same operation with CD Parquesolmilitant until this season in Reto Iberdrola, second step of patriotic ‘futfem’, one that was ruled out by the counteroffer under the purchase formula, including, among other requirements, a direct and high economic benefit. Given the distance between the two visionsdespite the orange reverse gear, from Zorrilla they ruled out talking more, once the Simanquina road was opened.
Goodbye to Valladolid Deportivo
In addition to confirming the creation of this section, eleven years after his disappearance, the appearance of David Espinar served to confirm that Real Valladolid’s quarry structure will be lightened next season, with the elimination of the teams that made up Valladolid Deportivo, those derived from the Foundation’s Football Schools. There were eleven registered this season, which disappear to the greater relief of the grassroots clubs in the province.
And it is that the “social and sporting work that the club has in its genes” was not understood in this way at these levels in the modest entities of Valladolid football, which since three years ago they started competing These teams had repeatedly complained to the Royal Football Federation of Castilla y León about their lower capacity to attract funds, given that Valladolid Deportivo copaba from prebenjamines to juveniles.
“We are very sorry for the children and parents attached to these teams, but from the club we are going to work so that they can find other locations”, said David Espinar, who, in this way, confirmed the change of address that the quarry will give regarding the existing approaches with Alberto Marcos in the position of person in charge of it, before being recently replaced by Diego López.
