History of Real Sociedad

Football in San Sebastian appeared at the beginning of the XX century, and already in 1909 the city got its own club - Real Sociedad. Its name means \"Royal Society\" because the team immediately received the patronage of King Alfonso XIII.

\"And it was Sociedad that became the champion of Spain twice in a row (1980/81, 1981/82), breaking the hegemony of the Madrid giants.\"
\n

Those were the times when the team relied only on their pets and showed all of Spain that it is possible to win without star players.

After that harder times came. The club gradually lost positions, and in 2007 it was even relegated to Segunda. However, he returned after three years and doesn't look back.

New Golden Page – Cup of Spain 2020. It was a historic final – a Basque derby against Atlético, postponed due to the pandemic. Real Sociedad won and showed that they are ready to fight for trophies again.
