Hércules embraces its community with an open training session
Hércules changed its season by leaning into a closer, more welcoming approach with its fans and supporters. After years spent apart from social reality, the club has chosen a path that shows care for its people and a gentler touch toward its hobby. The team, which competes in the fourth tier of Spanish football, is intent on climbing steps to win hearts, remove unnecessary past obstacles, and walk alongside the social crowd in pursuit of a shared interest. Yes, this is Hércules, but always. Torrecilla spoke with emotion at a press conference before the Peña Deportiva match, announcing that Rico Pérez would host an open training session. The warmth in his voice showed both emotion and hope, marking a special day for the fans, especially the younger ones who enjoy the holidays. [Source: Hércules CF Communications]

Adults and children faced the wind and the chill at Rico Pérez, gathered in the stands to witness a pleasant and relaxed training session organized by Torrecilla. The atmosphere felt different — friendly, communal, and hopeful — as players interacted with the crowd and used the moment to reconnect with supporters who have stood by the club through thick and thin.
