Club Baloncesto Benicarló, is a professional basketball team based in Benicarló, Valencian Community, that currently plays in LEB Plata.

History

[edit]

1969 is considered the year of foundation of the club as it was the year when Club Baloncesto OJE, the first team in the city, was registered. After playing since its foundation in the third division, the club promotes for the first time ever in 1987.

In 2018 the club is selected to cover a vacant place in Liga EBA.[1] After a first season where the club qualified to the final stage and failed to promote to LEB Plata in the repechage match, Benicarló achieves a spot for playing in the league.[2]
