History

The city of Motril previously had a club named Motril Club de Fútbol in the 1950s, as they played three times in Tercera División. In 1984, Motril CF were founded as a replacement to dissolved Club Deportivo Motril.

Motril first reached the Segunda División B in 1997, remaining six consecutive seasons in the category. In 2001–02 it inclusively finished the regular season in first position (in group IV), but lost in the promotion playoffs against Getafe CF, 0–1 on aggregate.

From 2003–12, Motril competed again in the fourth level, appearing in the promotion playoffs on five occasions, always without success. In July 2012 the team folded, due to heavy debts and financial difficulties.^[1]
