History
The club was founded in 2004. By 2005, the team had signed one of the best coaches from the 2004 tournament, Colombian coach Carlos Restrepo. The team was in the National Stadium of Costa Rica, and now plays in the Estadio "Cuty" Monge in Desamparados. The team has signed some good players such as Alvaro Mesen, William Sunsing, Ricardo Steer, Steven Bryce, Berny Peña, and many others. Recently the team invested in converting their home stadium from natural turf to synthetic grass.
Brujas is the newest team in Costa Rica, and has gained a lot of fans since their creation. It is currently managed by former Deportivo Saprissa and CS Herediano player Mauricio Wright, who was a member of Costa Rica's 2002 World Cup national team.
The club's supporters are known for using the now infamous phrase, Menores do que pensábamos (Smaller than we thought) as their official motto.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“So in accepting the leading of the sentiments, it is not what we believe concerning the immortality of the soul, or the like, but the universal impulse to believe, that is the material circumstance, and is the principal fact in this history of the globe.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.”
—William James (1842–1910)
