Xerez CD

In the early 20th century Sir Thomas Spencer, who worked with the William & Humbert winery, founded Sociedad Jerez Foot-Ball Club – he also served as chairman, player and captain.

Xerez first reached the second division in 1953–54, remaining there for five years; previously, in the 1940s, the team had promoted on the field but, due to the "high national interest" of the dictatorial government, left its position to España de Tánger.

The 2012–13 campaign, however, was disastrous on all levels, as the team finished in 22nd and last position as a direct consequence of enduring serious financial difficulties for several years,[3][4] and the situation culminated with the club being relegated to the fourth division on 1 August.

Apart from fighting for promotion, Xerez has achieved several merits of its own, such as attracting former members again or having nearly 9,000 spectators in the fifth category of Spanish football.

The crest is divided into two parts by a diagonal stripe of white background that runs from the upper right corner to the lower left.

In the upper left part is the central motif of the shield of the city of Jerez, the waves in blue on a silver (white) background.

[8] In September 2020, on occasion of a new and exciting sports project, the club's design and communication team decides to restyle the crest, eliminating the black lines of its predecessor, with a cleaner and more modern appearance.

To commemorate the 75 years of the Xerez CD, the club asked its fans to create their proposals for the 75th anniversary Anthem, choosing the one composed by Manuel de Cantarote, a Jerezano and Xerecist artist.

The animation group "Hools XCD", in honor of 10 years since its founding and support for the club, decided to release its own anthem in collaboration with Juan Pedro "El Pirata" Ramos Tribute to the fans of Xerez C. D. A song by Los Killoque and Jose Monje with the collaboration of El Pirata and the Xerez veterans.

This is due to the Regulatory Ordinance for the Carrying out of Activities in Municipal Sports Facilities that the City Council has been applying since it was put into practice by the Partido Popular government.

It used to be full both upstairs and downstairs in important matches, but due to promotion to the First Division, this stand was numbered, like the "Fondo Norte", to comply with the regulations.

In October 2006, a reform was planned that consisted of eliminating the athletics tracks, continuing the high stands of "Preferencia" and "Tribuna", and creating two new "Fondos".

After the xerecista promotion, an extra stand was approved for the grandstand area, since it has reduced visibility due to the benches, increasing the number of seats available.

Initially, the use of these stands was contemplated for the most important matches, such as the visits of Real Madrid or FC Barcelona, but finally they were maintained throughout the season, although in recent days the City Council requested their removal on the occasion of the celebration.

In the 2009/10 season, the historical maximum number of subscribers was reached, with a total of 16,216 members, due to the team's promotion to the First Division of Spain for the first time.
