Club de Fútbol Loros de la Universidad de Colima was Mexican football club that lastly played in the Ascenso MX, the second tier division of Mexican football. The club was based in Colima, Mexico.
The team participated in the Ascenso MX during the 2016–17 season after earning promotion by winning the Torneo Clausura 2015 Championship over Cruz Azul Hidalgo and the Final de Ascenso against U.A. Estado de Mexico (winners of Apertura 2014). They were initially going to get promoted during the 2015–2016 season, but they did not meet the stadium requirements set forth by the Mexican Football Federation.
In 2019, they returned to Ascenso MX after two years playing at Liga Premier, the third tier division of Mexican football. However, on December 27, 2019, the team was dissolved after Jimmy Goldsmith's death, the businessman had been the owner since 2008 and his family had no interest in keeping the club alive, which meant its dissolution.[1]
