History

Levante Las Planas was founded in 1983 in Las Planas district as a merge of local teams UP Bética and Rayo Planense.[1] The club is best known for its women's team, established in 1998. On the other hand, the male team plays in 7th-tier Tercera Catalana.

In 2012 Levante Las Planas was promoted to the Primera División for the first time after topping its Segunda División group[2] and beating Fundación Albacete and UD Tacuense in the play-offs.[3] In its debut season the team ended in the lower half of the table with a comfortable 16 points margin over relegation positions.
