Las Santas show off an extra range of Cabezudos, Vilafranca and Minyons
The Mataronenses unload their first 5 of 9 with lining of the season
The Santes de Mataró have once again delivered a top-notch performance, marking a turning point heading into the busiest summer weeks. All three groups—Capgrossos de Mataró, Castellers de Vilafranca, and Minyons de Terrassa—achieved the extra range, with the home team's first 5 out of 9 with forro standing out. They also wanted to add the 2 out of 9 with forro and cuffs, but this was left unfinished. The fall also forced a temporary halt to the performance, as injured people had to be treated when the crowd opened up.
For their part, the Villafranca team revalidated the five forrado and debuted the 9 out of 8, while the Terrassa team scored the two cuffed, in addition to the basic nine.
The other castle of the weekend was the 3 of 9 with the Joves Xiquets de Valls in the Riera de Gaià. The Colla Vella de los Xiquets de Valls, on the other hand, had a quiet performance with the mid and high range of eight.
8 premieres from Niños and Sant Cugat
The El Vendrell Children have surpassed the basic eight-level barrier by completing their first 7 out of 8 of the year at the Catllar. They shared a place with the Reus Children, who stood out by scoring their second 5 out of 8 of the year.
Another debut in the eight-level category was the 3 out of 8 for the Castellers de Sant Cugat, after a 2024 in which they had difficulties with this castle.
High-end 7s by Esplugues
The Castellers de Esplugues have closed the first part of the season with a great performance, in which they have debuted 2 of 7 and 3 of 7 under a stain.
