Delfines Fútbol Club was a Mexican football club based in Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche. The team last played in the Ascenso MX, the second tier of the Mexican football league system. The team played their home matches at the Estadio Unidad Deportiva Campus II de la UNACAR.
History
The team was founded on July 20, 2011 and originally played in the Segunda División de México, the third tier of the Mexican football league system. On May 20, 2013 it was announced that the team owner Grupo Delfines bought Ascenso MX club Toros Neza and relocated the team from Ciudad Nezahualcóyotl to Ciudad del Carmen, thus creating the current Delfines franchise.[1]
Due to the team's origin, the team's squad was made up of mostly former Toros Neza players and some members from the previous Delfines franchise who played in the Segunda División.[2]
The team only participated for one season in Ascenso MX, since on May 30, 2014 it was disaffiliated by the FMF because its owner was subjected to criminal proceedings.[3]
