Club de Fútbol La Piedad is a Mexican football club based in La Piedad, Michoacán. The club currently plays in the Liga Nuevo Talentos de Mexico in the Segunda División. Reboceros was founded in 1951 by football players from "Perros Bravos" neighborhood, most of them were craftsman working with leather and textile.

History

The club was founded in 1951.[1] In 2001 the club won the Verano 2001 championship.

In June 2009, an Ascenso MX football club from the neighboring province of Guanajuato, Petroleros de Salamanca, relocated to La Piedad.[2] The club changed its name to Club de Fútbol La Piedad, and four years later the club was promoted to Liga MX after defeating Neza FC in a promotion play-off. The club had asked permission to relocate from La Piedad before the new season began.[3] The club was subsequently sold and its over sixty-year history ended when the new owners from Veracruz decided to liquidate the club to use its Liga MX license for their Ascenso MX team Tiburones Rojos de Veracruz.[4]
