Latinos FC had their first major success in 2003/04 when they won both the Cayman Islands Premier League and the Cayman Islands FA Cup. The team then won the Cayman Islands FA Cup in the 2006/07 season which ended up being their last major success up until the 2015/16 season. In 2008/09 season, despite finishing only 5th in the Cayman Islands Premier League, the team disbanded and dropped to the CIFA Fosters First Division for the start of the 2009/10 league season. Since then and after years of being in the CIFA Fosters First Division, Latinos FC won the 2015/16 season to be promoted once again to the Cayman Islands Premier League. During the 2015/16 season Latinos won their first round FA Cup match versus Academy SC; however, Academy SC went through to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup due to an ineligible substitute not named on the sign-in sheet at the commencement of the match. Latinos were forced to settle with only a chance at the First Division.
