History

Founded in 1990 as Club de Fútbol Añaza, the club established a partnership with UD Tacoronte in 2012, playing under the name of UD Tacoronte-Añaza.[3] In the following year, after suffering relegation, the partnership ended and the club was renamed Asociación Deportiva Añaza.[4]

In 2020, Añaza ceased activities after selling their Interinsular Preferente spot to Real Unión de Tenerife, and only returned two years later, now under the name of Club Deportivo Añaza. Renamed Club Deportivo Añapro in 2023, the club again switched name to Unión Deportiva Añaza in the following year,[5] after achieving promotion back to the Preferente.[6]

On 25 April 2026, Añaza achieved a first-ever promotion to Tercera Federación, after being crowned champions of the Preferente.[7]
