History
The F.K. Alliance was founded on March 2, 1963 (the oldest Panama football club after Plaza Amador ) with a group of 12 young players who represented Panama in the first CONCACAF Youth Championship. Under the leadership of Don Justiniano Cardenas, the team took 1st place in the Second Division in the summer of 1963 and for the second time in 1968.
In the 1960s, the club existed with the support of local influential people, like the chief of the local department of the police department and Don Justiniano Cardenas, who raised enough money for further team performances.
In the 1970s, the Espivak company and its owner personally, Mr. Jose Weinberg, began to invest in the club, including the aforementioned investors.
In 1980, the main team became one of the eight members of the Liga No Afcionada de Futbol, at that time the top of the Panama League system. Throughout the 80s, the club grew and more money was invested in it from sponsors. There was a youth team of players under 19 years old, which participated in the Distritorial League for more than 25 years. The club was one of the founders of the First Youth League in the area of the city of Panama . (1980) A youth team has since played in the top division of their constituency, while the main squad began to participate in the ANAPROF Premier League, but for political reasons, in 1993, he was expelled from the league. The club was revived not without the help of local troubled youth. On July 26, 1993, a youth team named after Don Justiniano Cardenas was created, which made a significant contribution to the creation of the team.
In 1996, the team played in LINFVNA League - a competitor to the Major League ANAPROF. Two seasons later, the club returned to Primera A of ANAPROF, where he rose in class after defeating Atletico Gualupeso with a score of 1-0. Since 1996, the club has had its teams at the following levels: U-12, U-14 and U-15 (U-15 won its championship in the first season) In 2001, the club’s divisions expanded, they were added: U- 16 and U-19.
The best performance of the team in history is the 2003 season, where they reached the Klausura final, losing 1-5 to the Tauro club. The team's top scorer is Cesar "el Bombo" Medina.
