Next Saturday, against the current champions of Granma, the Camagüey´s team will debut in front of its people in the “Cándido”, who will turn 53 on December 26.
The installation has been pleasantly transformed for a few months in a laborious building polygon, pawned all the participating forces to improve the comfort of the athletes, coaches, umpires, managers, specialized press and public in general.
Beautiful and well-deserved gift this to a few fans who, even in the worst moments, have never stopped supporting the local selection, as evidenced by the average rates of inflow to the parties, detail that has excelled the main stadium of Camagüey among their counterparts from across the country.
The headquarters of the Bulls today exhibits an image completely renovated from own outdoor areas, thanks to the painting of the building, the veneer of walls, gardening improving, the remodeling of the parking area and placement of a modern lighting system.

The most compromised situation was located on the ground, which was the subject of intense days of treatment of the grass, filling of the slopes, cleaning security strips, improvement of the system of drainage and construction of a new area of warming up pitchers and a batting cage.

“We have to transform, he said, the poor performance of the last campaign. It is a commitment to the people and authorities we have both attended. The team is prepared to classify and strive to return the joy to Camaguey fans, which is the most faithful of Cuba.”
Contradictorily, during the 57 national series “Bulls” won more games as visitors who like home club: “That should reverse it, should get more wins at home, where we have the support of the public,” said Gonzalez, convinced that everything depends on the delivery and the discipline of each athlete.
This is the same picture Rafael Benitez ballast player: «the improvement in care must be accompanied by a top performance of the team. In recent months he has worked hard in the Elimination of individual and collective defects especially in technical -tactic order.

Camaguey began with good step classic balls and strikes, when winning the particular commitment against the Tigers of Ciego de Ávila in the Cepero Stadium, a square traditionally complicated for the Bulls. Despite the fracture of the fibula (without surgical criteria) of Leonel Segura, one of the key pieces of the campus, the Camagüey´s team managed a couple of hits, and now measure forces with Villa Clara, one of the unbeaten after the first substring.
Name to name, and position to position, one of the best payroll of the country is in Camagüey, with special strength in the body of launchers. It is then hope that the onslaught of the “bulls” have sufficient strength and constancy for the missed road victories. (Text and photo: Granma)[:]
