ANDUEZA MENDIZABAL, Modesto

Andueza III. One of the pelotaris who has been playing the ball the longest in the hand frontons. Born on 8 July 1940, in Azkoitia (Gipuzkoa), he has always been a pelotari (pelota player), and he turned professional in 1964, making his debut on 14 October at the Beotibar in Tolosa. He was promoted to the first category after his success in the final of the second category (1966) against the Navarrese Retegui, whom he beat by 22-5, precisely the same score, but in favour of Retegui, recorded in the elimination match these two players last March. Modesto Andueza is a nervous man on the court. His right hand is extraordinary and has been the basis of his best successes in the professional field. Ref. "Revista Frontón", n. 3, p. 22.
