History

This is one of the teams that has a duality in its history, having been born with the current name in 2004 when it debuted in the Colombian second division, but comes from a long history of the institution called Club El Condor which was founded in 1991 and played under three different guises: in 2000 the club was called El Condor, in 2002 Condor Real Bogota and a few years later Condor Deportivo Sur-Bogotá.

Until now the best season of Bogota FC was achieved in the first half of 2007 in the Copa Premier, after qualifying for the first time in a semifinal, with a near-perfect season with a roster mixed between experienced players and young talents like Javier Cuero.

In 2005, the team management was assumed by the company "GoGo" who provided capital to the team. During the 2010 season, played in one tournament, Bogotá accomplished a great campaign, ranking sixth in the quadrangular semifinals. After the first round lead with seven points, was eliminated after losing 2-3 at home against Deportivo Pasto and tie in the same condition 1-1 Patriotas F.C..

In March 2012 was announced that due to lack of support in Bogotá, the club may be leaving to the city of Montería in the department of Córdoba for the 2013 season. This request was granted on March 27 by the DIMAYOR. But negotiations failed and Bogotá FC decided to remain in the city.
