Controversy about naming

On July 24, 2015, the Zaragoza City Hall changed the name of Pabellón Príncipe Felipe to Pabellón José Luis Abós, in honor of the beloved coach of CAI Zaragoza, who died in October 2014.
As a result of a controversy about changing the name of the pavilion, approved without majority in the voting in the City Hall, CAI Zaragoza did not support the change.
Finally, the process of changing the name was stopped judicially.
