The name honors Jesús García Corona (1881-1907), who went down in history as the "hero of Nacozari" when he saved the city of Nacozari de García from an explosion, but was killed himself.
The stadium has already served as the home ground for several clubs from Hermosillo in the third and fourth leagues . In three and a half seasons it was even the venue of the second division , when the Gallos Blancos de Hermosillo (1995/96) and the Coyotes de Sonora (2005/06) for one season and the Guerreros FC (mid-2009 to the end of 2010) for one and a half years. were represented in the same.
On September 13, 1992, the stadium was the only venue for a first division match when Puebla FC moved their home game against Atlante (0-0) here. At the beginning of the 1992/93 season, the club could not use its stadium and had to play its first five home games on foreign courts, with the third home game taking place on the fifth game day in Hermosillo.
