History
On 23 July 1930, in the cafè Norat in La Rambla of Girona, the Girona Fútbol Club was founded upon the disappearance of UE Girona. The team subsequently entered in the second division of the Catalan Championships.
The first official match was played in the Colònia Artigas, and the team would eventually compete in the second level, between 1934–43 (six seasons), 1948–51, 1956–59 and from 2008 onwards.
