Mazorqueros F.C.

Mazorqueros F.C. was a Mexican football club that played in the Liga Premier de México. The club was based in Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco.

History
In 1985 a club named Mazorqueros was founded in Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco, the team participated in the third division until disappearing in the mid-1990s. In 1990, this team played a promotion playoff to Second Division B.

On May 19, 2016 the team was refounded. The squad was created to seek promotion to a higher category in addition to developing football among the local population.

On July 17, 2020 Mazorqueros was promoted to Liga Premier de México due to an expansion of participating teams in the league. However, the club maintained the Liga TDP team as a second squad.

The team won its first official title on May 8, 2022, when it won the Torneo Clausura 2022 after defeating Cafetaleros de Chiapas. After the tournament ended, most of the squad and technical staff of this team was used to form the Atlético La Paz from Liga de Expansión MX, a team that shares ownership with Mazorqueros F.C. During that season the club reserves team was champion of the Liga TDP, so Mazorqueros it got a second franchise to participate in the Liga Premier de México.

After the founding of the new team at La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mazorqueros became the reserve team of Atlético La Paz and was relocated to the Serie B de México because it became a development team, due to this fact, Mazorqueros eliminated its own reserve team, leaving only one squad with the champion players of the Liga TDP and using only one Liga Premier license.

On July 20, 2023, the club announced its dissolution in a statement published on its social networks. The team argued that it was difficult to continue with the project due to the fact that the city council refused to cede the stadium to the club, making it impossible to carry out improvement works in the venue, which were required by the league, for which reason the board of directors decided to dissolve the team due to the lack of guarantees for its continuity in the city.

Later it was learned that the Mazorqueros franchise was bought by Santiago F.C., a team from Santiago, Nuevo León, so the team changed its name and town, eliminating any possibility of the return of the Mazorqueros franchise in the future.
