[edit] History

San Salvador F.C. is the youngest team that isn't or was owned by the military in the First Division of Salvadorian Soccer, It was constituted on January 7, 2001, when the executives of the Club, bought the rights of ADET, for a total of $100,000, assuming a new challenge: to create a new club of the capital that represented a different option for the fans.

The new board of directors of the team, changed the traditional uniform colors of ADET to the new uniform, which included black and white colors, to resemble Italians teams, specifically Juventus.

As well as the old staff of the ADET, suggestion were made to be called San Salvador F.C., In his first season in the first Division was directed by the former-footballer Jaime Rodriguez and helped signed players such as Jorge "Mágico" González and Norberto Huezo Montoya.

The new San Salvador capital team played in the Championship of Clausura in the penultimate position of 14. up the points of the C.D. Atletico Marte and one points above of Dragon of San Miguel. Nevertheless San Salvador F.C. managed to maintain their position in the First Division.

Despite being a young team with a new manager, Rubén Alonso, San Salvador made history when it won the Apertura 2002 by defeating FAS 3-1. On June 15, 2003 in their home stadium, just 18 months after being founded, San Salvador beat C.D. Luis Angel Firpo 3-1 to win the Salvadoran Championship.
