The Levante Championship was split in two tournaments: The Valencian Championship and the Murcian Championship. So twelve teams (record at that time) were invited to the tournament.

Notes
  1. Athletic Madrid qualified on a tie-break match.
gollark: Normally people make that complaint about my server, which "makes no sense" and "has 86 channels aaaa" and "is useless what is it even for", but this one has a clearly defined purpose.
gollark: Place value notation is cool and good™.
gollark: What else are you going to use, Roman numerals?
gollark: Probably the blast with microwaves approach unless you can wirelessly hijack them too.
gollark: It would probably be more efficient to try and down drones by mucking with their communications more subtly than blasting them with microwaves.
