History

According to the club's archive website, the Panteras were founded on 28 September 1989 by ICADE students Vicente Martín-Pozuelo and Alfonso González Lavín and won their first game 14-0 at Palomeras. [2] They were runners-up in all three SFL/AFL seasons (1992-1994) and champions of the first LNFA in 1995, beating Barcelona Boxers 55-28 at the Estadio Olímpico de Madrid, and of the second in 1996. [1] [5]

Secondary sources place their demise in 1998 due to financial problems; some former players founded Las Rozas Black Demons in 2000. [4] [6]
