Club Polideportivo La Roda, also known as JAFEP Fundación Globalcaja La Roda for sponsorship reasons, is the basketball team of the Spanish namesake multi-sports club based in La Roda, Albacete. It currently plays in LEB Plata.
History
In the 1980s, CP La Roda reached for the first time the fourth tier, where it remained during four years before declining.
The club came back years later and started in the Provincial League, coming back finally to Tercera División, fourth tier, in 1989. Four years later, La Roda achieved the promotion to Segunda División, where it played continuously until 2002 (the league changed its name to Primera División in 1999) when the club was relegated to Primera Autonómica. One year later, it came back to Primera División for playing during 12 years before promoting to Liga EBA.
La Roda was relegated again to Primera División in its debut in a national league but remained in the league after the expansion of their group from 14 to 16 teams. In the next season, they ended in the fourth position and qualified for the promotion stage thanks to the resignation of Real Madrid B. Surprisingly, the club achieved the promotion to LEB Plata on 22 May 2017 after winning the three games of the final stage.
In their debut season, the club surprisingly qualified to the Copa LEB Plata by finishing in the second place after the first half of the regular season. It also ended in the second place of the table at the end of this stage, but was quickly eliminated in the promotion playoffs by Real Canoe. Their second season was completely different and La Roda ended in the relegation positions to Liga EBA.
Globalcaja La Roda has a strong reputation for developing young talent and has produced several players who have gone on to play in the top leagues in Spain and Europe. The team's home arena is the Pabellón Juan José Lozano Jareño, which has a seating capacity of 2,500.
The team's colors are blue and white, and their logo features a basketball with the team's name and a silhouette of a bull, which is a nod to the town's history as a center for bullfighting. Globalcaja La Roda has a passionate fan base and is known for its high-energy games and exciting style of play.
Overall, Globalcaja La Roda is a respected and competitive basketball team that has a bright future ahead of it. With a strong commitment to developing young talent and a dedicated fan base, the team is poised to continue making waves in the Spanish basketball scene for years to come.
