The celebrations of the Boca fans still resound in La Bombonera for obtaining the Professional Football League, in that dramatic definition with Independiente, River and Racing. 10 days have passed since that Sunday and the ‘Xeneize’ stadium is once again the venue for a climax. “Trick”, “I want retruco”, “I want it to be worth four”, is the soundtrack that is replicated on the L-shaped plateau of that emblematic courtyard. This is the definition of the Metropolitan Region of the first edition of National Leaguewith which the Argentina Association (ASART) wants to keep its desire that “the trick does not die”.

It is the first time that La Bombonera opens its doors for an event organized by the club’s Department of Culture and, what a paradox of fate, it was the one who ended up celebrating River. Is that the ‘Millionaire’ team got the ticket for the Final Phase after winning the Ridotto, after eleven days in which the Hurricane Athletics Club Y Pacifico of Villa del Parque from the Espada group, plus Miter of Avellaneda Y Sarandi fields through the Basto area they also obtained the classification.

The first National Trick League champion will be announced this weekend. On Saturday, twelve classified clubs from the various regional that have been held since last June will meet in the brand new space bplay inside the casino Trilenium from the city of Tigre in Buenos Aires. In addition to the five mentioned by the AMBA region, there will be Rosario’s Jockey (one team as champion of the National Cup 2021 and another as winner of the Rosario regional), Alvear Y La Salle (from the Santa Fe region), Gorostiaga Football Club (Buenos Aires Inner Region), Concord schoolchildren (Regional Entre Ríos) e Forest FC (Tucuma region).

“It is another dream that we have realized. We have combined neighborhood clubs with iconic football institutions, which cannot be denied that it is the sport par excellence in Argentina. Not only did Boca open their doors to us, we were in the Recinto de Honor del Cilindro de Avellaneda, at the Tomás Adolfo Ducó de Huracán stadium, at the José Amalfitani stadium in Vélez and in the San Lorenzo and Argentinos Juniors stadiums “, he explained to Clarione Giuseppe Alberto Vicontipresident of ASART.

Another important fact about this contest is that it has no age or gender distinction. “Indeed, the Unión de Santa Fe presented a team made up entirely of womenin a fact that we promote and accompany, because if there is something that has always done the trick, it is bringing people together “, he remarked.

Yes, the National Trick League has been played for the past five months seven regions of Argentina, with more than 70 clubs (including important ones such as Newell’s, Rosario Central, Colón, Unión, San Martín and Atlético Tucumán), but the project of this group of friends who dreamed of this gift when they created the first Unified Regulations does not stop. “We want to keep growing, we don’t want to stay with this. Our goal is that each province can find its best representative, who then participates in the National Championship and from there we can go, for example, to a Copa Libertadores,” Viconti said. .

It is that both in Paraguay, Uruguay and in the south of Brazil there are also places where makeup is rooted, with nuances, as also happens within the Argentine territory, because there are different forms and rules in each province.

“It forces you to weave strategies, to think, to imagine and read gestures or signs (the way you have to communicate the cards you have to your partner), movements, words that can hide something else behind. timba and recover the playful space of cards “, assured Rodrigo Ortega Sánchez, secretary of ASART.
