Real Madrid Baloncesto B (English: Real Madrid Basketball B) is the reserve team of Real Madrid. The team currently plays in the amateur level 4th tier level league of Spain, the Liga EBA.

History

The reserve team of Real Madrid was founded in 1955, as CB Fiesta Alegre, but it had played games since 1931. Fiesta Alegre was also known later as, Club Hesperia. With this name it played during three seasons, in the Liga Nacional, the top-tier level Spanish league, and in a final of the Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup). Hesperia was the only reserve team which could play in these games. Hesperia resigned from its place in the league in 1960.

In 1998, the team was re-founded, and since then, it has continued competing, despite a break between 2003 and 2006. In 2006, it started to play in the LEB 2 division.
