The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has experienced delays in finalizing group compositions and calendars for various Spanish futsal categories. These delays are attributed to ongoing legal and administrative disputes, specifically the ‘Heredia 21’ case affecting the men’s Second Division.

The RFEF has stated it cannot finalize competitions while legal uncertainty persists regarding the entitlement of specific teams to occupy competition spots, arguing that these spots belong to the Federation rather than individual clubs. A key legal hearing is scheduled for August 18 at the Commercial Court of Málaga to address precautionary measures previously ordered by the court.
