This Saturday at the Playa Honda Socio-Cultural Center arena, the third day of the XXII Island of Lanzarote Tournament concludes, a competition organized by the Island Wrestling Federation of Lanzarote and sponsored by the Island Council through the Island Sports Service. The fight, which will pit Mega Centro Playa Honda against Tías Cabrera Medida starting at 8:00 PM in the cadet category and one hour later in the senior category, is the most prominent of this day, as both teams will try to get the points at stake to continue positioned in the noble part of the standings. In this sense, the one who is defeated in the fight will take a step back in their aspirations to obtain the championship, as they would fall out of the top positions.
The coach of the Playa Honda team, Juan Carlos Hernández, has his island "A" point man Carlos Moreno, the island "B" José Miguel Fontes, and the island "C" Francis García, as well as the unclassified wrestlers Emilio Elvira, Toño Betancort, Jacobo Lemes, Agustín Bermúdez, José Aday Rodríguez, Ruimán Hernández, Cristóbal Moya, Oliver Alemán, Jesús Pérez, and Moisés Díaz.
