History edit
The club was founded by Julian Vadillo and Juanjo Pozo on 14 February 1964 and became part of the 3rd Regular Regional. In those beginning the Arganda played their home games in the Campo de Las Cañas. The beginning of the entity flows through the various echelons of the regional categories, until in June 1974 AD Arganda achieved one of their biggest hits after rising for the first time in their history after beating Third Division in the ascent phase to Zamora CF, Third Division team.
The club were framed in the Group II Third, along with historical teams today as the Club Atlético Osasuna, Getafe CF, Real Unión, CD Logroñés or SD Eibar.
The debut in the category ended in a 4–3 win at Atletico Madrileño, Atlético Madrid reserves.

However, as local victories achieved talked about, two 4–1 to Real Union and Industrial Béjar or Eibar 3–1.

After two years, the Regional A.D. Arganda returned to Third Division, where it remained for four consecutive seasons. Those years served to strengthen the team and that, under the presidency of José de Llanos, be achieved by getting the city to build a new football stadium, the current Municipal Sports Stadium, opened in 1980.
Soon after, in 1982–83, was again achieved promotion to Third División, in which the club endured two seasons in the category. In 1983–84 the club argandeño that ended in what is to date his best season in the category, finishing in 14th place.

After his disappearance, was formed UD Arganda, which brought together the local neighborhood teams.
This situation lasted until the 1991–92 season, the year that chairman Maximiliano Lopez takes over and manages, after City Council separated, that regains its original name Arganda, AD Arganda. A year later, in 1992–93, the Arganda returns to the preference category, which at different times managed to be among the top of the table and even stay at the gates of the rise, as happened in the 2005–06 season. Finally, it was the 2008–09 campaign in which the Arganda won the Third Division after he returned to consummate their league championship in Villarejo de Salvanés. For the first time since Maxi López became chairman, the team again reached the Third División.
In 2009, the Estadio Municipal de Arganda entered into a process of remodeling, so the AD Arganda had to play their games both at the Polideportivo de La Poveda as the new City of Football. The institution managed to put together a good set in the year of his return, 24 years later, but the economic problems that arose in the mid-campaign staff made the coach Paco Lobato and several players who came with him, leaving the club when the team marched in the comfort zone of the table.
