Top Queens Kickboxing
Celebrate International Women’s Day with an electrifying display of power. The spectacular “Top Queens” event returns for its seventh incredible edition, shining a massive spotlight on women’s kickboxing. Taking place this Saturday at the Pavelló Germans Maragall in Malgrat de Mar, Barcelona, this thrilling gala heavily promotes female athletes in combat sports. It proudly expects to draw a vibrant crowd of 2,500 enthusiastic fans, building on past successes of over 13,000 loyal attendees across previous international events.
A Global Stage for Female Fighters
Historically, martial arts have seen lower female participation. For instance, recent Spanish statistics from 2022 show only 1.4% of women practice these sports compared to 2.6% of men. Consequently, Top Queens actively aims to close this gender gap completely. This year, the exciting event proudly joins the Enfusion circuit, officially becoming “Road2Enfusion Top Queens.” Therefore, Malgrat de Mar now firmly sits on the global professional kickboxing map, bringing elite competition straight to the community.
Elite Champions Enter the Ring
Naturally, the ultimate spotlight belongs to the incredible athletes. Fans will proudly watch elite Catalan stars like Alexia Martínez, an amazing six-time national champion, and Judith “La Santa” Carricondo, a fierce three-time world runner-up. Additionally, international standouts Claudia Perona and Paula Andreu will thoroughly showcase their elite striking skills. Moreover, the dynamic fight card features acclaimed male champions like Dostin Ortiz and Miguel Ángel Fernández, ensuring an absolutely unforgettable, thrilling night for everyone.
Fighting for a Noble Cause
Beyond the fierce competition, this kickboxing event packs a powerful social punch. Importantly, all ticket proceeds directly benefit AFE Malgrat. This amazing association actively uses combat sports to support local at-risk youth. In fact, roughly forty percent of their current members come from vulnerable families. Because of this vital funding, martial arts become a highly effective educational tool. Ultimately, they teach essential life values like teamwork, deep humility, and relentless effort. Truly, local combat sports gyms contribute deeply and positively to our modern, constantly evolving society.
