History of Burgos CF
The First Burgos Club
The first Burgos CF was actually founded in 1922. It was also known as Gimnástica Burgalesa Club de Fútbol back then. This team played four seasons in Spain's top league, La Liga.
In the 1979–80 season, the club was moved down to a lower league. Famous players like Miguel Ángel Portugal and Antonio García Navajas played for them. They later joined Real Madrid. Coaches like Arsenio Iglesias and Lucien Müller also led the team.
After two seasons in the second division, the club faced big money troubles. They were moved down to Segunda División B in 1981–82. This happened even though they finished in a good spot. The club was officially closed down on May 24, 1983.
At that time, the reserve team, Burgos Promesas, had just moved up to Tercera División. It was decided that this team would continue playing as Real Burgos Club de Fútbol. This new team played three seasons in the top league. But it also stopped playing in 1993. Soon after, the current Burgos CF was started again.
Burgos CF from 1994 to Today
In 1994, the new Burgos CF began playing in the sixth tier of Spanish football. Félix Arnaiz was their first coach. The team quickly moved up two leagues to the Tercera División. In 1997, they reached Segunda División B for the first time.
After a tough first year, Burgos CF started to play well. They tried to get promoted to Segunda División several times. In 2001, on their third try, they finally made it! They won against teams like Sabadell and Ceuta in the play-offs.
In the 2001–02 season, Burgos finished 16th. But they were moved back down to Segunda División B. This was because the club did not become a sports company (Sociedad Anónima Deportiva) in time.
After this, Burgos kept playing in Segunda División B. They almost got promoted again in 2007. But they lost to Sevilla Atlético in the play-offs. A year later, the club was moved down to Tercera División. This happened after a draw in their last match.
Burgos spent three seasons in Tercera División. They moved back up in 2011 after beating UD Lanzarote. But the next season, 2011–12, was very bad. They finished last in their group.
Just one year later, in 2013, Burgos CF was promoted again to the third tier. They won against CD El Palo in the play-offs.
In 2017, the club decided to become a sports company. This was 16 years after their first attempt. They finally achieved this goal in 2018.
On June 4, 2019, Burgos CF started a partnership with CD Nuestra Señora de Belén. This created a women's football section for the club.
In 2020–21, Burgos won their group. They were promoted to the second division again. This was 19 years after their last time there. They won against Bilbao Athletic in the play-off finals.
