Pelotai Eune will be held on 8 June. The organizers of the Pelotai Eune have explained that this is a decision taken jointly by the organization and the girls participating in the championship. “We talked to the girls and we told them that if the girls didn’t move forward, Pelotai Eune wouldn’t move forward. On the contrary, if the girls were moving forward, Pelotai Eune was also going to go ahead," the organizers said. They have advanced that they will remain in touch.

Last year, Pelotai Eune honoured Reyes Azkoitia and it was the Azkoitiarra pelotari set up in Bergara that had the honour of launching the program 'pelotazos'. The organizers also wanted to make it clear that “they will continue to work hard to promote equality.”

And so it will be. The girls participating in the Pelotai Eune Popular Championship have decided to go ahead, so Pelotai Eune will also go ahead. On Saturday, 8 June, the ball day will be held in Azkoitia, and as in the four previous editions, tributes, women’s popular championship finals and other activities will be held. The only one that has been suspended is the popular boys’ championship.

Messages of forgiveness

Faced with the insults to the women who wrote last week in the team of the Pelotai Eun Men's Championship, the organization apologized, "above all, for not giving a quick response at the time," they explained. For their part, Whatsapp members, who wrote insulting messages, have also apologized for the death of Whatsapp. In a WhatsApp message broadcast today, he assured that his "intention was not to offend anyone". He explained that this is a "joke of bad taste and out of place". In addition, he added that “it would be a pity if the girls “spoiled the site” they have in Pelotai Eunea for “that exit”.
