Racing de Ferrol

Racing Club de Ferrol (founded in 1919) is a Spanish football team from the city of El Ferrol near the port of A Coruña in north-western Spain.

History

The history of football in Ferrol is associated to the shipbuilding yards, workshops, foundries and dry docks and the British technical advisors, hired to work locally, who used to play against existing teams. During the late 1800s and early 1900s there were different football teams organized in Ferrol, though only one of them has survived, and as a result of an amalgamation of some other previous teams. Racing Ferrol Football Club traces its origins back to Jun 1919, when the final team as it stands today was finally established. These days plays in the Spanish Second Division.
