History

The club was born in 1944 with the aim to create a team for the players of the neighbourhoods of Usera and Colonia de Moscardó. It was officially registered in the Castilian Football Federation on 23 July 1945, and currently belongs to the Madrid Football Federation.

In 1964, Moscardó promoted for the first time to Tercera División, and six years later to Segunda División. The club only could remain in the second tier one season before being relegated again to Tercera; it was the first club to play in the league with a pitch of soil, without grass.[1]

Since that relegation, the club alternated Tercera División and Preferente until 1989, when it promoted to Segunda División B, and alternated Segunda B and Tercera during the 1990s. In the 2000s, the club ended its second golden era and continues playing between fourth and fifth tier.
