The TBS District 2025 will have a historic opening in a match to be played at the Prudential Center in the city of Newark, in the US state of New Jersey, in an NBA-style arena, with the “Game of Respect” between the Mauricio Báez and Bameso clubs.
El Mauricio is the current champion of the capital’s competition, after winning the final against Bameso in 2024.
The expected encounter at the iconic Prudential Center court, at 25 Lafayette in Newark-NJ, will be from 6:00 in the evening, whose tickets are on sale at www.Ticketmaster.com with prices ranging from 69 to 257 dollars.
The next day, Sunday the 21st, the actions move to the official headquarters of the district championship, which is the Ricardo Gioriber Arias Volleyball Pavilion, in a day of three matches, of the intergroup phase, at 3:00 in the afternoon, between the clubs El Millón and Los Prados.
Then, at 5:00 in the afternoon, the San Lázaro squads will clash against Huellas del Siglo, and in the closing, at 7:00 at night, the Rafael Barias and San Carlos teams will face each other.
The eight participating clubs were divided into two groups; Mauricio Báez, San Carlos, Huellas, and Los Prados are in group A, and Bameso, El Barias, San Lázaro, and El Millón are in group B.
The information was provided by Prof. Nelson Ramírez, who will be the Commissioner of TBS District 2025, by a decision of the Abadina Executive Committee and the senior clubs.
Ramírez highlighted that “this competition calendar was agreed upon and approved by the Organizing Committee, the Abadina Executive Committee, and the eight superior clubs, maintaining a balance for each one.”
“This calendar was made for 40 dates on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and some Saturdays were also enabled,” said Ramirez.
He pointed out that “this is because in the third week of November the First Qualifying Window for the World Championship will be played in the country and the Dominican Basketball Federation (Fedombal) and its national team need a week to complete their training and play the two corresponding home games.”
He informed that by September 10th, the teams must register 10 players in the technical office headed by Ramón Ceballos.
He said that for the New Jersey meeting between Mauricio and Bameso, the selection process for the referees who could officiate the match is underway, in addition to the fact that the Technical Commissioner will be Pedro Ortiz and the person in charge of the technical table will be Professor Víctor Sierra.
