On the morning of Saturday, July 3, preliminary Portuguese pool meetings were held in Alcanena, Riachos and Lapas with the aim of identifying the players who will compete starting at noon at the headquarters of the Clube Amador de Desportos do Entroncamento (CADE) as the final of the 5th tests of the Santarem circuit (open).

At the same time, the final of the Ribatejo Cup was planned at the same place, the winner of which also gets the right to participate in the Portuguese Cup.

Entroncamento has received the cream of the pool in the area.

In the magnificent premises of the entroncamentense club, with three good quality tables, the cream of this variant of the pool, named Portuguese for being the most popular in Portugal, has been collected.

It is played on a 2.20m X 1.10m table inside with a set of 16 balls, one white and a group of 1 to 7 (simple) and 9 to 15 (listed). There is also a black ball (8), which is neutral and pocketed after everyone else in the group is the goal of the game.

The Portuguese pool is the most popular option in the country.

With the best sports specialists in the district, some with international experience, the 1/8 finals, quarterfinals and semi-finals left the players of the highest level of their kind, with the most competent qualified to the final. , with a bit of luck.

If Thiago Sousa (Os Nazarenos) beat Frederico Pereira (Mammamia Pool Academy, from Riachos) 5-1, another semi-final in which Nelson Grace (Mammamia Pool Academy) fought Pedro Bastos (Os Nazarenos) was very close .. . and only in “black” did Pedro Bastos take the upper hand and reached the final.

Pedro Bastos had to compete against Nelson Grais to reach the final.

As two experienced players from Grupo Desportivo “Os Nazarenos” met in the final, expectations were high. With a lot of mutual knowledge, the sophistication of the form and how the game unfolds will determine the degree of difficulty of the winner.

Thiago Sousa quickly took the lead in the score – 3: 0. Pedro Bastos’s reaction was insufficient, and the final 5: 1 clearly reflects the superiority of Thiago Sousa in the decisive game.

Thiago Sousa (left) became the winner of the Open.

At the same time, another ending aroused curiosity. The Ribatejo Cup Final was played head-to-head with the county’s top-placed players Nelson Grice (Mammamia Pool Academy) and Gonzalo Matrenou (CADE).

The Entroncamento player, hoping for a good game, saw that victory eluded him without appeal or complaint. Despite the quality presented by the home team, the superiority of Nelson Grace’s game did not give Gonsal Matren any claims.

The Ribatejo Cup went to Riachos.

Organized by CADE, under the auspices of the Portuguese Billiards Federation, these finals were held in a healthy manner, with great respect among the players, and the home team provided high-quality logistics and all the support needed.

Billiards is a sport played by many of the federation’s athletes in Portugal, but with little coverage. Observing the future of this sport, Clube do Entroncamento started a training project for the little ones. An example to follow …

Gonzalo Matrenou (CADE) gave a possible answer.

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
