History


The club was founded on 27 June 1916, and its first chairman was Francisco Tapia. It was one of the eight teams that founded the professional Chilean football league in 1933.

The club had other sports branches besides football; these were basketball, cycling, and water polo.

The club won its first and only Chilean league title in 1945.

In April 1961 a number of players were killed in a plane crash in the Chilean Andes.[1] The remains of the plane were found ten days after the accident. The wreckage was rediscovered in February 2015 by a climbing party.[2]

In 1965 the club moved to Temuco where it merged with the local football team Deportes Temuco. Known for the first two decades as Green Cross Temuco, in 1985 the club reverted to the name Deportes Temuco.
