History edit

The team was founded in 2016, from that year it began to compete in the Liga TDP, but using the registration of a team called Azules de la Sección 26 situation that would remain until 2018.[1] In 2018, the team changed its registration and began to use that of the Atlético San Juan de Aragón, which it has maintained since that year.[2]

In the 2020–2021 season the team became the best club during the regular season of the TDP League, scoring 100 points during the 36 games of their group.[3]

In July 2021 the team was invited to participate in the Liga Premier Serie B because it achieved the best records in the Liga TDP regular season, finally, on July 30, its entry into the league was made official.[6]

In the 2022–23 season, the team achieved its sports promotion to the Liga Premier, after eliminating Atlético Pachuca, Guerreros DD, Inter Playa del Carmen and Estudiantes de Atlacomulco.[9] For the 2023–24 season, the team was relocated to Cuautitlán, State of Mexico, with the Estadio Municipal Los Pinos as its new ground.[10]
