Elda was promoted in 1992 to the División de Honor, where it played for the next two decades. In the late 1990s it became a national powerhouse, winning four leagues and two national cups between 1999 and 2008.[1] The team's major success in European competition was reaching the 2005 Champions League quarter-finals and the 2010 EHF Cup final, lost to Randers HK. It also reached the EHF Cup and Cup Winners' Cup's semifinals in 1998, 2002 and 2007.[2]
In June 2012 Elda asked to be relegated to the third tier due to financial strain.[3]
