History
The club was founded as a futsal team in 2013, but from 2015 has been playing as an association football club, after Europa split from College. Throughout its history it was primarily led by chairman Nolan Bosio, although when the Gibraltar Premier Division and Gibraltar Second Division merged in 2019, Joseph Mir took over as chairman and a large scale rebuild of the squad took place, including the establishment of an under-23 side for the Gibraltar Intermediate League. Despite this, the side struggled immensely, picking up a solitary point in a 5-5 draw with Europa Point, in their final match before the season was abandoned.
