history
The Club de Deportes Ovalle was founded on New Year's Day 1963 in the city of Ovalle , which now has a population of just over 100,000 in the Little North of Chile in the Coquimbo region. Relatively quickly, the still very young club achieved promotion to the Segunda División, at that time the second highest division of Chilean football. In this one remained for many years until in the 1975 season the second place could be occupied behind the multiple master Universidad Católica , which entitled to promotion to the Primera División . Deportes Ovalle separated two points from their first rival Deportivo Ñublense . Having arrived in the first division, coach Yemo Díaz's team had an excellent first season there. With tenth place the relegation worries were kept off the neck for almost the entire season, in the end the club separated eight points from the first direct relegated, Naval de Talcahuano , and four points from the first relegation place, occupied by CD Huachipato . The second first division season did not go so badly for Deportes Ovalle, but with 27 points from 34 games they were positioned on a relegation place in the end. There they met in a playout game on Santiago Morning to prevent relegation. However, Santiago Morning was able to prevail on December 21, 1977 in Valparaíso 2-1 and sent Deportes Ovalle back to the Segunda División. To date, this playout game is Deportes Ovalle's last first division game.
After relegation from the Primera División, Deportes Ovalle developed into a permanent guest in the second-rate Segunda División. You played from 1978 for fourteen years up to and including the 1991 season in the second highest Chilean football league. Then finally the descent to the Tercera División, from which one returned in 1993 as a master in the Segunda División. This was followed by eleven second division years before Deportes Ovalle had to go back to the third division at the end of the 2005 season. And this time the club did not make it back to the second division. Instead, one sank a little into the lowlands of Chilean amateur football. However, Ovalle was able to provide an exclamation point in the Copa Chile 2008 when, after victories over CSD Colo-Colo and Huachipato, they made it to the final, where CD Universidad de Concepción was waiting as opponents . In the final, Deportes Ovalle lost 2-1 and missed the chance to win the sensational cup.
In the league, however, Deportes Ovalle slipped completely during this time. The club was only found in deep amateur football. In 2014 one rose again to the Tercera División. Due to an initiative of the association, Ovalle slipped straight into the Segunda División and will be back in third class from the 2014/15 season.
