Hotels Ultonia Girona hosts the preliminary phase of the Women Euroleague 2020

The competition format chosen by the best women’s basketball league in the world, in order to be able to finish the Covid season, was a first step to success. Although not being in Disneyland and with nothing to envy the NBA for, the Spar Girona has taken a step forward to take on the organization of a Girona bubble so that their fans can enjoy the team.
Although this desire may never materialise due to the health situation, Uni Girona will fight to continue advancing in European competitions and, why not, continue dreaming of the greatest rewards. After beating Turkey, the Catalans ensured their participation in the preliminary phase and a few days later, FIBA confirmed Girona’s candidacy to be one of the bubble-hosts.
UMMC de Ekaterimburgo, the Italian contenders Familia Schio or experienced teams like the Latvian TTT Riga. And the referees? Of course, the Euroleague Women’s refereeing teams will also live inside the bubble.
As the name suggests, the aim of the bubble format is to isolate all the teams and thus reduce the risk of contagion and spread of the virus as much as possible. With this in mind, the organization was immediately impressed by the facilities, location and service offered by Hotels Ultonia Girona. So, for four days, the players, technical teams, masseurs and delegates will live exclusively in the hotel and in the pavilion.

How is all this done? The Baluard, the hotel’s event space, allows up to four rooms to be sectored completely independently and with a dedicated catering service for each room. This allows each team to have a private room where they can prepare technical talks, review concepts and study their opponents. This arrangement is ideal for each team to be able to live independently without having to coincide beyond what is strictly necessary, i.e., not a minute longer than the 40 minutes that the match lasts.

The transfers to Fontajau are made with specific coaches for each club that park right in front of the hotel, pick up the players and technical team and in less than 5 minutes they are already in the pavilion.
To the high standard

To the high standards of disinfection and cleanliness of the establishment, we must add the controls and antigen tests that the entire team of Hotels Ultonia has passed to be able to enter the bubble environment. Any guarantee is too little, but it is another great test of effort to ensure that everything goes well.
Undoubtedly, first level basketball in Girona. Now everything is ready for the show.
