Abstract
Analyzing the leisure that football brings to society, we have detected that the sector of the subsidiaries, in which our project focuses, has an obvious lack: the players that make up the staff of the subsidiary teams are highly mediated and followed by fans of the world of football nationally and internationally. In contrast, the leagues in which these teams compete are not followed either nationally or for a long time internationally.
The subsidiary teams compete in their respective leagues of the Spanish championship. These leagues are ideal for the optimal professional development of footballers. In Second B, for example, the players reach their maximum level thanks to the great demand of the league itself and the teams that make it up, from affiliate teams with a similar idea of play to more resultant teams with experienced players. Expanding this concept, due to the current structure of the Spanish leagues, it is very difficult to find matches between subsidiaries. Depending on the division in which they are located, only affiliate matches are designed by geographical area, so you miss the great opportunity to watch some very interesting matches.
It is important to ask: What demand could a "Mini Classic" have? And a Seville derby? And a Madrid derby?
A league of affiliates as such is an attractive option for the spectator, but at the same time it is incompatible with the training interests of the clubs. There is currently no effective way to determine which is the best affiliate club in Spain, when experience shows that it is a pride for clubs to be the trainers of the best talent.There is an untapped opportunity because, in short, they are professional players, very talented and with a clear projection to be references of national and international football. From the outside, Spanish football is perceived as the “Silicon Valley” of football, ie the most important nucleus of both training and professional talent, and in this sense there is a great opportunity to make the most of this resource. in a wasted sector. It is important to mention that French football is the one that manages to bring out the most talent in the professional elite. How can it be that one of the least competitive leagues in Europe, with little media coverage and an unfavorable environment, has the honor of saying that it is the world's largest exporter of talent? From what has been stated above, we propose MAJOR FILIAL CUP (hereinafter, MFC) a competition between the subsidiaries of the clubs that compete in the Spanish LaLiga, which fits perfectly with the interests of both the clubs and the spectators. With this competition the teams would not stop competing in the structure of Spanish leagues, since the proposed format of a first virtual classification and later eliminatory rounds - which will be developed in chapter 5.1 of the present work - would not affect the normal development of existing competitions.
With this format, the clubs would have the opportunity to face each other, with the aim of offering Spanish and even international football fans attractive matches that the current organization of competitions does not allow. In this way, the clubs would be able to mediate the staff of their subsidiary teams and, consequently, could monetize the spectacle that this competition would offer. Obviously, we, as organizers, would also reap some of the economic benefits of this competition - in line with what will be explained in Chapter 8 of the paper.
