History

The team was founded in August 2016 in Mexico City, from that year it began to compete in the Tercera División de México, 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]
