Benidorm Mayor Toni Pérez attended the opening training session alongside several members of the local government and regional MP José Ramón González de Zárate. They greeted the players, the coaching staff led by Alejandro Cutanda, and club president Jacobo Balongo. Addressing the squad, the mayor reaffirmed the City Council's support for the team and highlighted that Servigroup Hoteles Benidorm is "a benchmark for the city, especially for young people, thanks to the values of hard work, determination and commitment that it represents." He also encouraged the players and coaching staff to approach the new season with ambition as they once again compete for promotion.

The squad features several new additions ahead of the 2026–27 season, including line player Diego Vera, who joined in June from BM Guadalajara and brings ASOBAL League experience, and Estonian international Hendrik Koks. Both players have been confirmed as key reinforcements for the club's new sporting project.
