History

In June 2017, the board of Murciélagos F.C. decided to rename his reserve team, Murciélagos de Guamúchil, as Pacific F.C., in this way the team was enabled to seek promotion to Ascenso MX. Also, it was determined that the new club would be based in Mazatlán instead of Guamúchil.[2] The change of venue included the construction project of a football stadium in the city.[3]

On August 13, 2017, Pacific F.C. played his first match, being defeated by 0-2 against Santos Laguna Premier.[4] In the first season, Pacific F.C. played in Estadio Centenario, Los Mochis awaiting the construction of its new ground in Mazatlán. The team remained at Los Mochis until February 2019.

At the end of November 2018 Pacific F.C. and Venados de Mazatlán signed an agreement, in which, the baseball team would help in the process of marketing and promotion of the football club, in addition to formalizing the move of the team to the city.[5]

On February 16, 2019, Pacific F.C. played its first match in Mazatlan, playing their matches at Estadio Teodoro Mariscal, which belongs to Venados.[6]
