Official Schedule and Preseason Update for Hercules in Second RFEF Group 3
Hercules is set to argue their case at the Los Arcos municipal court this Wednesday evening at 8 PM. This event marks the sixth preparatory gathering of the pre-season, a pivotal moment as the club restarts its campaign with a view to promotion to the second RFEF. The Vega Baja squad will serve as the penultimate rehearsal before the official start of the new season, scheduled to unfold at the Antonio Asensio sports complex, with a kickoff planned for September 4 at 12 noon. The Málaga city of Palm hosts the venue for the team as the action begins to ramp up. Led by Ángel Rodríguez, the team has concluded five summer fixtures with a positive tally, and as the campaign approaches, there is a sense of readiness and resilience in the camp.
The people of Alicante have secured at least three victories and have drawn their two most recent fixtures, both at home. The upcoming schedule features matchups against Alcoyano, currently competing in the First RFEF, and Cartagena B from the Second RFEF, with both games played on home soil. The Leonese coach will continue to contend with the absence of Álvaro Hernáiz, who was unable to participate at all during training due to a micro-tear in his quadriceps after joining the group. This setback adds to a list of squads preparing for a demanding season, where depth and tactical flexibility will be tested from the outset.
Nico Espinosa remains unavailable as he approaches a recovery period longer than a month to mend an arm fracture sustained in his first practice match. In contrast, young left-back Marcos Bravo, who joined the club recently, is expected to make his debut alongside his new teammates as the squad edges closer to full strength. Ticketing details indicate a pricing structure that makes attending accessible: adults pay 10 euros, while children aged 3 to 11 and youths from 11 to 17 are either free or discounted, with Orihuela members and all under-11 attendees enjoying complimentary access. This approach reflects the club’s emphasis on building local support and fostering a family-friendly matchday experience.
Official Schedule for Second RFEF Group 3 shows a notable opener. Day 1 features Mallorca B versus Hercules, scheduled for September 4 at 12 noon. The team has faced a period of uncertainty in the lead up to the season, but the latest confirmation signals a definitive start to the campaign. The upcoming matches are arranged to minimize travel strain for the squad, including travel considerations for island fixtures to facilitate ease of movement across the peninsula. This measured planning aligns with the club’s objective to establish consistency and cohesion as soon as the competition resumes.
Hercules will inaugurate the league on natural grass at the Antonio Asensio Sports City in the Balearic capital. Ángel Rodríguez’s side will host the season opener at home under lights in the early evening. With the calendar still awaiting a final public decision from the Spanish Football Federation regarding specific kickoff times for later dates, the team remains focused on the immediate challenge and on building momentum through the opening rounds. The overall plan emphasizes preparation, squad integration, and strategic flexibility as the league commences in earnest.
