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:
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“The history of progress is written in the blood of men and women who have dared to espouse an unpopular cause, as, for instance, the black man’s right to his body, or woman’s right to her soul.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
