Racing Club de Ferrol (founded in 1917) is a Spanish football team from the city of Ferrol, Galicia near the port of A Coruña in north-western Spain.
The colours of the club have always been green shirts with white shorts, though during the early years of existence they used to have green and white shirts with vertical bands. During the early 1990s due to some re-planning of the metropolitan area of Ferrol, the home stadium was re-located in to a new and more spacious place near the beautiful valley of Serantes with the new name of A Malata Stadium; it seats 12,042 spectators and offers the local Racing supporters plenty of room to celebrate each match "live".
Racing de Ferrol has played most of its existence in the Spanish Segunda División, although they have descended as low as third.

[edit] History
The history of football in Ferrol is associated to the shipbuilding yards, workshops, foundries and dry docks and the British technical advisors, hired to work locally who used to play against existing teams. During the late 1800s and early 1900s there were different football teams organized in Ferrol, though only one of them has survived, and as a result of an amalgamation of some other previous teams. Racing Ferrol Football Club traces its origins back to June 1919, when the final team as it stands today was finally established. These days plays in the Spanish Segunda División.
In the season 2005/06 they finished in 20th position and therefore was relegated to Segunda División B.
