History

The team was founded in 2018 as part of a social integration program of the Benito Juárez City Council, one of the municipalities of Mexico City, since its first season the club was registered in the Liga TDP.[2]

Since its foundation, the team has always qualified for the promotion play-off round of the Liga TDP, having its best performance in the 2020–21 season when they reached the quarterfinal round.[3]

On June 30, 2023, the team entered the Liga Premier – Serie B through an expansion franchise to increase the number of teams participating in that league.[4] After the league change, the team was relocated to Estadio Jesús Martínez "Palillo", although, the team tried to play at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes located in its original district, the request was rejected so it had to move to that stadium located in another area of the city.[5]
