- The note issued by the Baiko Pilotabistas Association helps to analyse the company’s current conflict from a broader perspective of the world of the ball. This association has highlighted the importance of clubs: "In the past it has been clubs, now and then they will be the ones who supply pelotaris to the companies, despite being abandoned, by almost all administrations and also by the companies that do business at the expense of the ball. The reality is that clubs are disappearing every year because they do not have sufficient subsidies or human resources. However, the young people who after teaching this sport will reach the professionals continue." In addition, it has made these requests to the company Bai, the League of Basque Ball Companies and the administrations.
The full document of the Pilotabi association is signed in Amezketa on 10 October (can be read in full in the following link).
"Huh, huh! Talk to Eskiroz, Victor, Mariezkurrena and Laso to remain professional"
He asked Baiko to settle the economic situation through an interview, sitting with the representatives elected by the Pelotaris of the company. He has also asked him to start talks with Eskiroz, Víctor, Mariezkurrena and Laso so that "they can continue to be music professionals".
"To the League of Ball Companies Association: Organising an open championship so that it is not essential to be in the companies"
It has asked the League of Hand Ball Companies Association to "suspend the competitions it has in place today and future competitions, so that all participants have equal opportunities depending on their sports level". As they have denounced, "otherwise you could not consider yourself a sport, but something that could be subjected to other interests". For all these reasons, he has asked the League to organise an open sports championship, "in which it is not essential that it be of the Aspe and Baiko companies".
Administrations: Launching a strategic plan and ensuring the future of the ball"
The Pilotabizi association has asked the administration to initiate strategic planning with players in the world of the ball and with other sports players who can make an interesting contribution. He has denounced that the sports model of the Association of Basque Ball Companies "is the exploitation of the ball" and has asked the administrations to understand this model with the ball agents to "guarantee the future of the ball".
They have asked the administrations to equip football clubs and federations with the necessary financial and human resources, as well as to "begin to complete the legal structure necessary to be able to collect training rights".
