It was the first society (that we know of) dedicated to athletics in the country, and just the second football team to have been formed in Madrid only after the proto-club Cricket and Football Club of Madrid of 1879. Local historians discovered about the existence of this society only years later, thanks to a piece of news that appeared in the magazine "El Veloz Sport" on 18 April 1897, with an almost exclusive theme dedicated to cycling, although it also mentioned other sports such as athletics and football.
