Return to Liga Amateur de Veracruz

After 2 bad seasons winning only 5 games out of 28 games played, the club return to play in the Liga Sur for the 1920–21 season in Veracruz after the Primera Fuerza decides that only clubs from the capital would be allowed to participate in the league. The club returns to a league dominated by Veracruz Sporting Club, who would dominate the league in the 20s and 30s after the club had its chance to play in the Primera Fuerza in Mexico City.[2]

Iberia de Veracruz was able to win a few more titles until the Liga Amateur de Veracruz was dissolved in 1943 in order to begin the first professional league in Mexico, Pimera Division de Mexico.
