one of my mates, who plays for Girona University, said it was a great opening round and over 150 players were involved!
This link is for the University championship. The club championship is starting this Sunday:
http://www.rugbylliga.cat/competicio/i- ... nada=grup1 There is no Perpignan team in this championship. I think that in the future, to develop rugby league in Catalonia they should have a Barcelona club in the French Championship whose most of the teams are in the South of France. This would be great and it would make sense geographically.

I think we all agree, with the Dragons' matches in Barca and the interest from the Football club promising. Getting the players and investment for such a team is a question though. I think that the Dragons would be interested in helping out, but they won't have the money for two LER sides - Barca and Spanish Catalan bussiness will be needed.

Dunno, tapping into the Spanish Catalan market has been the plan from day one. Not taking part in a Spanish Catalan LER side would be conceding that plan.

Girona beat Vic 62-6 but it was surprisingly entertaining given the scoreline. and it was very strange to see competed scrums
