Club Xuventude Baloncesto is a basketball team based in Cambados, Galicia (Spain). The team currently plays in league LEB Plata.

History

Xuventude Cambados was founded by a group of friends in 1976.

In 1999, Xuven promoted to Liga EBA, where it played four seasons before being relegated to Primera División. In 2009, the club came back to Liga EBA and in 2011 it qualified for the promotion playoffs to LEB Plata where, despite completing a 28–2 record in the regular season, it failed in the playoffs after losing in the finals to CE Sant Nicolau.

In its second attempt, Xuven clinched the All-Liga EBA title after ending the whole season with a 21–2 record, thus promoting to LEB Plata. The club remained five seasons in the league before being relegated again to Liga EBA. However, Xuven was demoted to the sixth division after failing to fulfill the requirements to play in Liga EBA.[1]
