The Mancomunitat de l'Horta Sud and Biciclub Picassent are organizing the V Junior Trophy, a cycling event bringing together 150 cyclists from 16 teams to cover 111 kilometers across the region.

This Saturday, April 25, the L'Horta Sud region will host the V Junior Mancomunitat de l'Horta Sud Trophy. A total of 150 cyclists, representing 16 teams, will participate in this sporting event, which has become a consolidated fixture in the regional calendar. The event is organized by Biciclub Picassent, with the support of the regional institution, which has contributed 4,800 euros for its realization.
The race will start at 3:00 PM in the Port de Catarroja. The 111-kilometer route will pass through 14 towns in L'Horta Sud, including the hamlet of La Torre and the Barrio del Cristo. After completing two laps of the circuit, the finish line will be set up in Picassent.
The itinerary will largely run through the urban centers of the region. In the first lap, the peloton will pass through Catarroja, Massanassa, Alfafar, Sedaví, La Torre, Paiporta, Picanya, Alaquàs, Aldaia, Barrio del Cristo, again Aldaia, Alaquàs, Picanya, Paiporta, Catarroja, Albal, Beniparrell, Silla, and Alcàsser before reaching Picassent.

"With this event, we aim to promote sports among young people, with all that it entails in terms of effort, healthy habits, teamwork, belonging to an entity, etc. Furthermore, it is another way to structure the region."

the president of the Mancomunitat
The competition has seen significant growth compared to the previous edition, increasing from one hundred riders in 2025 to 150 in 2026. This increase is attributed both to the consolidation of the event and a change in the regulations of the Valencian Cycling Federation, which now allows the registration of U23 cyclists in junior races, extending the participation age from 19 to 23 years. The 16 participating clubs come from the Valencian Community, Murcia, and Castilla-La Mancha.
The Mancomunitat de l'Horta Sud maintains other sports subsidy lines throughout the year, such as 1,500 euros for the Popular Race Circuit and a contribution of 1,000 euros for the I Petanque League of Torrent Associations. Additionally, it allocates 3,000 euros to the Valencian Pilota Federation for the celebration of the Trobada Mancomunitat de l'Horta Sud, which brings together an average of 250 boys and girls.
