When does Castellon's preseason start?

Castellon begins training on Monday 13 July at 9:15 a.m. at the Ciudad Deportiva La Coma, led by Pablo Hernández, who has renewed his contract and is steering his first senior preseason.

Which friendly matches are confirmed?

The first friendly will be played on Saturday 18 July at 19:00 h against CE Sabadell, newly promoted to Segunda División, at La Coma. A week later, on 25 July, Valencia CF will visit the same venue, kicking off at 20:00 h.

In Girona, Girona CF will host Castellon on Wednesday 29 July at 18:30 h in the Girona Football Academy. Two days later, Friday 31 July, Deportivo Alavés—a La Liga side—will face the albinegro squad at the Estadi Municipal de Olot, time still to be set.

The preparation phase ends with two matches the weekend before the league starts. On Friday 7 August, Hércules CF (Primera RFEF) will play at José Rico Pérez in Alicante at 19:30 h, and on Saturday 8 August, Levante UD (La Liga) returns to La Coma at 19:00 h.

How do the season milestones line up?

After the 9 June loss in the promotion play‑off semifinal, the albinegro squad gears up for its league debut on the weekend of 15‑16 August, although the exact kick‑off time remains unknown. The schedule shows the first home game will be against Real Sociedad's B team in Zubieta.

The second official match is set for 22‑23 August against CE Sabadell at SkyFi Castalia; the precise day will be confirmed between Friday and Monday. Finally, the transfer window closes on Tuesday 1 September at 23:59 h, leaving room for last‑minute signings.

What does this calendar mean for fans?

Supporters can mark every key date—from the 13 July training start to the 1 September market close—on their calendars. The mix of Segunda, La Liga and Primera RFEF opponents offers a solid test for the squad, while fixtures in Girona and Alicante broaden the club's reach beyond the city.

The plan reflects Pablo Hernández's aim to balance physical and tactical work before the demanding Segunda División 2026/27 campaign. Each match will be a chance to fine‑tune team chemistry and assess potential signings before the final deadline.
