Perspective
In 2020, the city of Reynosa was left without representation in Mexican soccer after the dissolution of Atlético Reynosa, a team that played in the third–tier of Mexican football.[1] Later, some teams from the city emerged in the Liga TDP, the fourth division of Mexican football, although without popular repercussion.
In May 2023, Alebrijes UABJO won the Serie B de México (4th division), thus obtaining promotion to the Serie A (3rd division). However, as this team served solely as the "B" team of Alebrijes de Oaxaca, it had to be sold due to a lack of budget to maintain it in that division.[2]
On June 15, 2023, it was announced that a group of businessmen bought Alebrijes UABJO, and the team was relocated to the city of Reynosa as Club de Fútbol Reynosa.[3] The club's owner was DaVinci Sports Group, a private company specialized in sports investments, which is also a shareholder of CF Lorca Deportiva in Spain.
The first players on the team were footballers from Alebrijes UABJO.[4] On June 30, 2023 it was announced that the team was officially named C.F. Orgullo de Reynosa due to administrative technicalities.[5]
In their first, and only season, the team managed to qualify for the play-offs characterized by solid goalkeeping and defensive performances. However, they were eliminated in the first round by Gavilanes de Matamoros.[6]
On June 28, 2024, C.F. Reynosa was put on hiatus by its board due to a lack of interest and sponsors to help cover the team's operating expenses in the Liga Premier.[7] The team was not reactivated for the 2025–26 season and was officially dissolved in accordance with the regulations.
