News article on: Roller Hockey

Mia Ordeig the only new face

The only new signing of the season (signed from CP Vic). He was in fact signed two seasons ago and then loaned back to his original club for the following season finally joining Barça for the 2006-07 season. Although he took some time to settle in, Ordeig gradually became a key element, especially in the Final Four in Bassano.

Back to winning ways

The 2006-07 season was almost a 100% success. With the signing of former CP Vic star Josep Maria Ordeig, the only black spot for FC Barcelona’s roller hockey section was failing to take the Spanish Super Cup, which was won by great rivals Reus.

In the rest of the competitions, Barça was unstoppable. The first success was in the Continental Cup against Follonica, the team that had eliminated Barça from the European league the previous season in controversial circumstances. Barça won the first leg in the Palau 7-1 but lost the away leg in Italy 2-0.

The Cup against Reus

The next title to be won by the men coached by Quim Paüls came in February in Alcoy. Barça Sorli Discau beat Reus Deportiu 3-1, thereby taking revenge for the defeat in the same competition by the same team last year.

Bassano helpless against Barça

Barça completed a great season by winning the European league and the OK League. The Final Four - Bassano, Porto, Vic and FC Barcelona Sorli Discau - of the European Cup was held in the small Italian town of Bassano. Barça beat Porto in the semi-finals and then went on to sweep aside the hosts in the grand final to lift the Club’s 17th European Cup.

Barça beat Reus again

Barça put the finishing touch to a great season by beating fierce rivals Reus 3-0 to lift the Club’s 10th consecutive league title. The final game also featured the farewell of team captain José Luis el ‘Negro' Páez.
