Joseba Ezkurdia and Unai Laso will be the main attractions this afternoon at the Pentecost Pelota Festival in Bergara, starting at 5:00 PM.

The Aspe fronton player will be partnered by local backer Beñat Rezusta, while the Manomanista bronze medalist will be supported by the young Martxel Iztueta. Laso has a busy schedule before the summer break; he competed in the consolation final of the individual hand championship on Sunday, will play in Bergara today, and on Friday will be in Berriatua, acting as godfather to Unax Landa.
This event will serve to launch the San Fermín Four and a Half tournament for Baiko Pilota. Beñat Senar and Beñat Zubizarreta, both from Ataundi, will kick off the Bilbao-based company's matches.
Ezkurdia will not return to his company's schedule until June 21st, the date he will resume activity after the holidays.
