Club History

Early Years and Nicknames

The Lobos de Tlaxcala football club began in 1973. It was formed mostly by young players from the state of Tlaxcala. They joined the Tercera División de México right away. The team quickly earned two nicknames. They were called "Lobos" (which means Wolves) and also "Escuadrón Verde" (Green Brigade). This second nickname came from their green home jerseys.

The Lobos played in the Segunda División from 1979 to 1982. After that, they were moved back down to the Tercera División. The club then took a break from playing. They returned to the league in 2003. At that time, they played under a new name: Guerreros de Tlaxcala.
