Excerpt from EBSM (European Baseball & Softball Magazine) on Meritxell Blesa:

The shortstop of the championship Fenix in Valencia, Spain has been on the country’s national team since 2011. Because of her age, Blesa spent three of those years on the lower teams, but in 2015, and again in 2017, she played for the seniors…When she’s not at short, or in class, Meritxell is on the field bringing up the next generation of Spanish ballers. She’s been coaching for three years now. EBSM spent some time with the young leader during a European Softball Coaches Association (ESCA) training session.
