History

This club is related to: Atlético Chihuahua and Dorados de Chihuahua, Second and Third division respectively, which were ephemeral existence.

This team was founded at the initiative of the State Government and the Autonomous University of Chihuahua in 2006, having its debut in the 2006 Apertura tournament. During its first two tournaments the desired results were not met and there was the possibility of team division relegation.

For the 2007–08 season, achieved the best campaign team, to be first on the table for unaffiliated and third overall in the Northern Zone in the Apertura 2007, which gave him the right to contest its first league, which was eliminated in the first round (eighth) for Atletico Cihuatlan. And for the Clausura 2008, the team managed to remain as first overall in the north, tied in points with Bravos de Nuevo Laredo, but with a better goal difference, thus the move to its second league, where the story was repeated, leaving out the first change, this time against the Vaqueros de Ixtlan; curious and final time in these eliminations, are the failure to weigh the local ground, as before Cihuatlan was lost in the round tied with Vaqueros in overtime. Then followed two short tournaments that started well, taking the taste of undefeated for most of the tournament and giving the front end of the U Loros de Colima and Dorados de los mochis classification followed by two liguillas.

On November 12, 2010 was achieved the feat for the fourth time they took one of the biggest wins for the Apertura 2010 by just defeating Delfines de los Cabos 2–1, which got their ticket to the playoffs in the liga de ascenso of the Second Division Professional Soccer.[1] They were set to face Cajeteros de Celaya in the second round of the league. Wednesday November 24 the 1st leg in Chihuahua and Saturday 27 the 2nd leg in Celaya, Guanajuato.[2] In the first round, Fuerza didn't know how to take the advantage at home and went with a score of 0–0.[3] Sadly they were defeated at Celaya, with a final score of 5–3.[4] Club Celaya eventually became the second division champion for this season.

From January 2019, the team was renamed as Club Universidad Autónoma de Chihuahua.
