A summer of sport

 

From what I can work out this is a stone throwing competition . You play in pairs and pay 20€ to take part. The competition takes place on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm and then from 5pm until 8pm. The money goes to the Fiesta for San Joaquín. 

There are six prizes ranging from a pair of hams to a couple of chorizos.

Now I understand that – it is a seven a side football competition.

 

and tennis I know about.  As for frontenis, that is a game played on a three-sided court, similar to a jaialai (frontón) court but smaller, using a reinforced tennis racket and a very lively rubber ball.

I’m exhausted just thinking about all that sport. I thought Bigastro was supposed to be a “slow city”!
