Unión Deportiva Horadada was the local team in Pilar de la Horadada in Spain's Province of Alicante. U.D. Horadada had several sponsors, including Grupo Caliche and the Town Hall.
History
The team was founded in 1972. They played in the Segunda División B for one season (1992/3), they otherwise have always played in the Tercera División. They have reached the league play-offs twice.
For the start of the 2006/7 season, they changed to Group VI (Valencia) from Group XIII (Murcia). This was due to the Real Federación Española's decision to make all clubs play for their corresponding regional league.
During their brief stint in the Segunda División B, they reached the third round of the Copa del Rey. Their success ended when they lost 1–9 away to Deportivo La Coruña.
As of late, the club has been dogged by financial problems. Indeed, in July 2007, Horadada were forced to sell their Tercera División status to Villarreal C in order to stave off bankruptcy. In doing so Villarreal C moved from Preferente to Tercera while Horadada moved in the opposite direction.
In August 2020, the club did not register for the 2020–21 Regional Preferente campaign due to the lack of sponsorship,[1] and later was dissolved. A new club in the city named CD Horadada Thiar was founded afterwards, but only lasted three years as a senior in the Segunda Regional.
Stadium and Kit
The name of their stadium is Ikomar, named this because of its location on a slope [citation needed]. Their kit consists of a red shirt, purple shorts and blue socks.
