In 1977, the club joined the Liga Profesional de Sucre (Sucre Professional League). The club disputed the competition for three consecutive years, but, due to an amateur administration and lack of resources, the club was eventually relegated to the second division. [1]

In 1989, the club closed its professional football section. [1]
