The 20 doctors that take part in the Galens Catalonia team are ready to demonstrate their level and retake the title of the "http://cenacon.com.br/eventos/2013/worldmedicalfootball/index.php?conteudo=705" World Medical Football Championship, won five times, the last one in 2011. This year’s edition is special, because it takes place in Natal, Brasil, at the same time of the FIFA World Cup, and because it is the 20th edition of this championship created by Dr. Ferran Morell, head of the Pneumology Research group at Vall d’Hebron Institute of Research (VHIR). The Galens Catalonia will participate in the tournament from the 6th to the 12th of July coinciding with the last week of competition of the World Cup. The team was also founded by Dr. Morell in 1974 and they quickly participated in first level international competitions, until the creation of the World Medical Football Championship in 1995. Barcelona hosted for 10 years this Cup –also called Dr. Ferran Morell’s Cup– and since then, the competition has been hosted in countries such as Australia, Lithuania, South Korea, Sweden, Great Britain and Austria. In the last edition, that took place in Hongria, the German selection triumphed among the 15 participant countries. The Spanish-Catalan team comprises 10 doctors from the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital, and clinicians from the Hospital del Mar, Hospital Esperit Sant, Hospital Clínic, Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Hospital de Terrassa, Hospital Meritxell from Andorra, Hospital Son Llàtzer and Clinica Miramar from Mallorca, and the Hospital Insular from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.For the captain, Dr. Morell, “all these years of the championship have represented a major benefit for the relationship between doctors at the hospital and to create many friendships here and abroad”. Besides the physical exercise, the football players always celebrate a symposium where they explain what they do with the T-shirt that they wear the rest of the year, the doctor’s coat.
