After the first phase of the Endesa Mini Cup has been played, the name of the eight teams that will fight to win the title in the Final Phase of the tournament is now known, which will also take place in Valencia from February 18 to 22.
The Fuente de San Luis Pavilion, the legendary Fonteta, and L'Alqueria del Basket have been the venues for a total of 26 games in which more than 200 children have been able to enjoy the game, including many of the future stars of Spanish basketball.
Barça, defender of the title
The champion waits. The Barcelona team has won the last two editions of the tournament, the last one in Gran Canaria, where they won their 5 games, including a final to remember against Real Madrid (86-71). In fact, the whites are the only ones that surpass him in the ranking of titles (9 trophies to 8), so Barça will arrive at Valencia 2026 ready to equal him at the top of the list.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid showed in the first phase that it is very willing to recover its crown, after losing the last two finals of the tournament. In Valencia, the Madridistas quickly defeated Bàsquet Girona (72-22), UCAM Murcia Polymec (84-34) and Oteclima Granada (46-96) to seal their qualification.
Valencia Basket
The taronja team acts as host with all the hope in the world to shine in front of its fans. Valencia Basket was fifth in the last final phase, beating Casademont Zaragoza (85-68) and falling to Cajasiete Canarias (91-73) and, in extremis, Real Madrid (76-75). On this occasion, he dreams of repeating or even improving the performance of 20 years ago, in Madrid 2006, the only time he reached the final of the tournament.
Western Basketball Manresa
The people from Manresa qualified for their fifth Endesa Mini Cup with an epic performance, overcoming a bad start against La Penya and winning the Catalan derby after an explosive finish to be in Valencia 2026 (93-87). Previously they had beaten Cochesinternet Lleida (90-64), San Pablo Burgos Segura and Mayor (19-69), losing to Tirma Gran Canaria (99-49).

Unicaja
Unicaja will not miss its classic date with the final phase of the Endesa Mini Cup after winning its classification against UCAM Murcia Polymec in the battle between second places. Previously, they had beaten Bilbao Basket (92-54) and MoraBanc Andorra Undercoverlab (26-77), although the defeat against Cajasiete Fundación CB Canarias (76-91) delayed their celebration for 24 hours.
Casademont Zaragoza
The Zaragoza team has been one of the great sensations in Valencia, standing out as an offensive team with an engaging game. Always above a hundred points, Casademont Zaragoza defeated Río Breogán (103-66), Baskonia (61-106) and Joventut Badalona (85-111) to obtain their classification, with an unstoppable Daniel Pardos dressed as MVP.
Tirma Gran Canaria
Tirma Gran Canaria has stood out as one of the most overwhelming teams in the Valencia tournament, with a relentless defense that closed its duels early against San Pablo Burgos Segura y Mayor (58-8), Cocheinternet Lleida (39-90) and Occident Bàsquet Manresa (99-48).
Cajasiete CB Canarias Foundation
The Cajasiete Fundación CB Canarias started the tournament with such momentum (40-2 in the first quarter) that it never stopped its inertia: 63-12 against MoraBanc Andorra, 75-100 in a vibrant duel against Bilbao Basket and 76-91 in its “very final” against Unicaja to celebrate its classification in style.
