On 24 July 2015, the Zaragoza City Hall changed the name of Pabellón Príncipe Felipe to Pabellón José Luis Abós,[3] in honor of the beloved coach of CAI Zaragoza, who died in October 2014.[4]
As a result of a controversy about changing the name of the pavilion, approved without majority in the voting in the City Hall,[5] CAI Zaragoza did not support the change.[6]
Finally, the process of changing the name was stopped judicially.[7]
