The GEiEG Pacisa team from Girona faces the Women's League 2 final today against Maristes Corunya, with the main goal of being crowned champion of the category and, if possible, achieving promotion to the Challenge League.

The team's coach, Pau Fuster, has emphasized that the main motivation for this final is not just promotion, but the opportunity to be recognized as the best team in Women's League 2. This season, GEiEG Pacisa has led the regular league A, securing a historic spot in this decisive playoff.
The first match of the final will be played today at the Lluís Bachs pavilion in Sant Narcís at 4:30 PM. The team has prepared intensely for the encounter, making tactical adjustments to maximize their chances. The squad is in optimal physical and mental condition, with the exception of injured players Agustina Talasimov and Núria Bagaria, who will be replaced by two players from the Supercopa.

"We have the possibility of being directly promoted and becoming Women's League 2 champions... What will happen next year if we achieve it, however, does not depend on us. Promotion would be a leap into a professional category and, obviously, a decision will have to be made. It's something we don't control. For us, there's nothing beyond this final; winning it would mean being Women's League 2 champions, more than just promotion. Being the best team of the season. That's enough motivation to try to give our best. Promotion, well, a thousand factors will come into play and then we'll have to see what happens. The important thing is to be able to show that we are the best team in Women's League 2."

Pau Fuster · GEiEG Pacisa Coach
Regarding their opponent, Maristes Corunya, the coach highlighted the presence of four players with a level above the league average, who are capable of making a difference in the game. He warned that the Galician team opts for a very high pace of play, seeking easy baskets and open three-point shots. Therefore, the key for GEiEG Pacisa will be to control the pace of the game and dominate defensive rebounds to impose their own offensive play.
The coach emphasized the importance of getting a positive result in this first match and having good competitive feelings. The team is confident in its abilities and hopes to have the support of the fans at the pavilion to make this day a memorable event for Girona basketball.
