Founded in 1940, Turrialba made it to the Segunda División in 1964 and won promotion to the Primera División in 1965. During the 1960s and 1970s they were known as a yo-yo club, changing divisions frequently. Their most recent spell in the Primera División was between 1991 and 1997,[1] when they were relegated after a 1–0 defeat by Puntarenas.[2] Since its foundation, it has been named Turrialba FC, Asociación Deportiva Turrialba and Municipal Turrialba.[1] They have totalled 16 seasons in the top tier.[3]
In December 2014, former Cartaginés chairman Thelvin Cabezas acquired the Turrialba franchise in a bid to lead the club back to the Primera División.[4] They were renamed Turrialba F.C. and Uruguyan Carlos del Toro was named as manager.[5]
