The Barcelona women's football team played its second season of organised football in 1973, in the Catalonia-based league Copa Primavera, which it won.
After the first Catalan women's football league in 1971,[1] the Francoist organisation took over to organise Catalan tournaments in 1972, in which Penya Femenina Barcelona did not participate.[2] These tournaments were cancelled in March 1973,[3] with Educación y Descanso starting the second edition of its spring season (copa primavera) shortly thereafter, in April 1973, with Barcelona taking part.[4]
Barcelona had still played in 1972, with Pubill being called up to the representative Spanish team in October 1972.[5]
Ahead of the 1973 season, Barcelona advertised trials for the squad, organised by Nuri, in Mundo Deportivo from at least January 1973.[6]
A great surprise came on matchday 6 of the spring season when Sabadell, who had lost the previous five games and were bottom of the league, defeated Barcelona 3–0. Barcelona had been unbeaten at the top of the league;[7] after matchday 7, the result was annulled and the points were awarded to Barcelona, with Sabadell penalised for having fielded multiple unregistered players in the match.[8]
Two of the games hosted by Industria del Taxi, against Barcelona and Espanyol, had to be postponed for Taxi's pitch to be disinfected after hosting a horse show. These were rescheduled after the last natural matchday; at the end of the spring season, Barcelona and Espanyol were both tied in first place on 21 points, and so the results of both teams' yet-to-be-played matches against Taxi would decide the victor.[9] Barcelona won the league.[10]
