Ensenada Fútbol Club, also known as "Los Tiburones de Ensenada", was a Mexican professional football club based in the city and port of Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, that competed in the Liga Premier, the third tier of Mexican football.

History

In January 2025, Agricultores F.C. Guasave, a team that played in the Liga Premier – Serie A, was relocated from Guasave, Sinaloa to Ensenada, Baja California due to security problems in Sinaloa that were causing many complications for the team's operation in its hometown.

In June 2025, the dissolution of Agricultores F.C. and its refoundation as Ensenada F.C. was formalized. The owners felt it was impossible to return to their hometown, so they decided to found a new team to adapt to their new city.

After its founding, Ensenada F.C. continued to participate in the Liga Premier – Serie A, being placed in Group 1, the same group occupied by Agricultores F.C., a team from which Ensenada F.C. inherited all participation rights.

Stadium

The Estadio Municipal de Ensenada, officially named Estadio de la Unidad Deportiva Raúl Ramírez Lozano, is a multi-use stadium in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. It is used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium for Ensenada F.C.
