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.[1]

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.[2]

On July 17, 2020 Mazorqueros was promoted to Liga Premier de México due to an expansion of participating teams in the league.[3] 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.[4] 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.[5] 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.
