Club 31 celebrated its 50th anniversary this Saturday with a special match played at the José Rico Pérez stadium in Alicante, bringing together most of its current members.

The history of this entity began in 1976, when a group of friends who were football fans decided to organize themselves to continue practicing their favorite sport. Over time, the group grew, establishing itself as a space for coexistence and sporting passion for people over 30, mainly from the La Florida and Ciudad de Asís neighborhoods.
Throughout its five decades of existence, the club has maintained values based on discipline, respect, and perseverance. In its early days, the organization had strict statutes regulating everything from uniforms to sanctions for absence, a rigor that has evolved into great camaraderie among current members.

"The importance of belonging to a like-minded group, to a team, to work side by side with the rest of your teammates, respect, discipline, and perseverance are the values that have kept the club going for its 50 years of history."
