History
The club was created in 2010 as part of the Liga Nacional de Ascenso expansion project for the 2010–11 season.[1] During their first season in the second division they were able to qualify to the promotion playoff against SUNTRACS after defeating Veraguas 2010 2–0 in the 2010 Apertura final.[2] On May 28, 2011, Colón C-3 defeated SUNTRACS 2–0 and became the fifth team from the Colón Province to play in the Liga Panameña de Fútbol.[3] In June 2011 they won their first game in their LPF history, beating Atlético Chiriquí 2–1.[4]
Their return to the second division was confirmed in April 2012.[5] In May 2015, Colón C-3 reached the final of the 2015 Clausura,[6] but lost 2–1 to SUNTRACS to miss out on a place in the promotion playoff.[7]
