The CD Tahíche Blanco cadets were proclaimed champions of the Women's Handball League on Saturday morning. The white and blue team needed the victory to secure the league title and represent the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands Championship that will be held in the coming weeks. Tahíche Blanco won 24 to 15 against ACD Teguise.

Aware of how much was at stake in this last game of the season, CD Tahíche Blanco took to the court more focused than their rival. After the logical nerves at the start of the match, Tahíche Blanco took control of the situation and began to mark the first differences on the scoreboard.

In the first half, the attacks of both teams were not very effective and the defenses imposed their law. From the 10th minute, CD Tahíche Blanco hardened its defense, which caused errors in the ball circulation of Teguise and quick counterattacks that ended in a goal.

With a 5-0 run, Tahíche Blanco obtained a difference of 6 goals in the middle of the first half.

The two teams became stuck again in attack in the final stretch of the period. Tahíche Blanco tried to play through its pivot, a strategy that did not give the expected results. At halftime, the score would be 11 to 5 in favor of Tahíche.

The locals did not slow down in the second half and did not want excessive confidence. The first minutes were marked by exchanges of goals between one team and another. CD Tahíche Blanco continued to maintain the six-goal difference on the scoreboard and the timid approaches of Teguise were countered with new goals for Tahíche Blanco.

As the minutes passed, the defenses were not as strong as at the beginning of the match. This allowed a greater number of goals to be seen in one goal and another. In addition, in many cases they were quick plays that were born from the defense.

With the result of 24 to 15, the match would come to an end. A victory that proclaims the components of CD Tahíche Blanco as league champions. Despite tying on points with CB Puerto del Carmen "A", it is Tahíche Blanco that occupies first place as it has a better goal average than its rivals. Tahíche Blanco will represent Lanzarote in the Canary Islands Championship, which will be held in Tenerife in a few weeks.
