Initially dedicated exclusively to youth football, Roda established a senior team in 1999. In 2006 the club signed a collaboration agreement with Villarreal CF, sharing their youth setups and helping in the development of players.[2][3]
José Roda, CD Roda founder, wanted his children to play sports. That is why in 1974 he decided to found his own football club, named after his family name.[4]
