The Guipuzcoan Football Federation (FGF) has launched an extraordinary inquiry into the suspicious results of the final matchday in the Cadete Honor Masculina category to safeguard the competition's integrity.

The Guipuzcoan Football Federation (FGF) has launched an extraordinary inquiry into the suspicious results of the final matchday in the Cadete Honor Masculina category to safeguard the competition's integrity. Specifically, the matches Anaitasuna-Martutene (16-1) and Arrupe Chaminade-Danena (15-1) will be investigated.
The FGF has requested the cooperation of players' families, coaches, and officials to gather testimonies and determine potential responsibilities. The federation affirms its respect for the presumption of innocence but does not rule out sanctions, especially given that the players involved are minors.
These results, unusual for the top regional tier, have raised concerns. Anaitasuna secured direct promotion to the Liga Vasca, while Arrupe Chaminade, despite a significant final victory, could not surpass Anaitasuna on goal average. Beasain, another contender, has been eliminated.
The Federation has stressed its commitment to the "integrity of competitions" and the sanctioning of any behavior contrary to "good sporting order."
