History
[edit]The women's team of Valencia Basket was created in 2014 after integrating the youth teams of Ros Casares Valencia, former EuroLeague Women champion club which dissolved its senior squad in 2012, into the structure of the club.[1]
In its first season, Valencia Basket played in Primera División, the third tier of Spanish women's basketball.[2]
The club promoted in 2016 to Liga Femenina 2, and two years later, it qualified for the promotion playoffs to the top tier as champions of the Group B and achieved promotion to Liga Femenina, the top tier of Spanish women's basketball, in front of 6,200 spectators.[3] In their debut season, Valencia Basket reached the semifinals.
