History

edit

In February 2021, the Pachuca City Council began the procedures to form a representative football team for the city, with the aim of integrating it into social programs to support youth.[4] In its first two seasons in the Liga TDP, the team qualified for the promotion play-offs, although it was eliminated in the first round.[5]

On June 30, 2023, Atlético Pachuca, merged with Pachuca Premier, the C.F. Pachuca reserves team that plays in Liga Premier,[6] after the merger, the team was relocated to Serie B de México where it will compete with the identity, colors and shield of Pachuca Premier, but under the administration and coaching staff of Atlético Pachuca.[7] The new team maintained its status as a reserve team for C.F. Pachuca, so it continued to receive youth players from the main club.[1] On 18 July 2023 the team was relocated to the town of Atitalaquia, although keeping the name of Pachuca in its identity.[1]
