Moratalla CF explained

History

Moratalla Club de Fútbol was founded in 1976 as Club de Fútbol Juventud Moratallera, moving to its current name two years later. It first appeared in national category ten years later, competing in Group XIII in the fourth division.

In 2008–09, the club made its first presence in the third level promotion playoffs, being ousted by CD Alcalá 0–2 on aggregate. However, after Lorca Deportiva CF was relegated for lack of payment to its players, Moratalla took its place, making its first appearance in the category on 30 August 2009, in a 0–2 away loss against Real Murcia Imperial, and eventually being relegated back.

The team was dissolved after the 2010–11 season due to economic problems, and its place was bought by a recently founded club, FC Jumilla.
