History edit

 
A match of the 2016–17 Primera División against Oiartzun at El Vivero.

Founded in 1998, Santa Teresa promoted to Segunda División in 2011, after winning the Extremadura Group of the Regional Leagues. Three years later, the club promoted to the top tier after beating Sporting Plaza de Argel in the last round of the promotion playoffs.[1]

On 27 February 2017, the club approved to start its conversion into Sociedad Anónima Deportiva, becoming the first women's football club in Spain to do it since the creation of the SADs in 1990.[2]
