The club was founded on 2 February 2001 as Granada Universitarios and later took the name Granada Lions. [3] [4]
Its biggest national title came in 2013, when it won LNFA 2. [1] The federation record covers its seasons between 2011-12 and 2022-23, and in 2022 it won the twentieth edition of the Liga Andaluza. [2] [5]
Based in Maracena, in 2025-26 it played no FEFA competition and built its season around Andalusian play: it lost the Copa Andaluza final 8-14 to Mairena Blue Devils in December 2025 [6], opened the Liga Andaluza 7x7 with a draw in February 2026 [7], and in March took the Copa Andaluza by beating Almería Barbarians 12-7.
