History

The club most successful campaign was the 1987-1988 season. Vendaval reached the final against ADET, however Vendaval lost the match and this was the closest Vendaval would get to reach the first division.

In 2012, the club was forced to merge with Chalatenango to form Chalatenango-Vendaval because of financial difficulties and they currently play in the second division. However after one season, In 2013 the partnership between Chalatenango and Vendaval ended and they split into two teams again, with Vendaval remaining in the second division while Chalatenango descended to the third division.

Prior to the start of the 2024 Clausura season Vendaval suffered a major crisis with several experienced players leaving the club. Vendaval was able to assemble a squad predominantly made of youth players yet the club suffered a horrible campaign losing every game and only scoring three goals. Vendaval were relegated to the third division.
