History
The beginning, the Northern Federation
In the early twentieth century, the Cantabrian players fought encounters between the Spanish regions in a combined team created in 1915 under the name "Team North", which also included players from Basque Country. In the first tournament in Madrid they beat the Catalonian team 1-0 and drew with Centro (a team formed by players from the centre of Spain). In May 1916, the "Team North" faced Barcelona twice, winning by 1-3 away and 5-0 at home. In 1922 separate teams were created for Cantabrian and Basques because the first would not accept the renaming of the Northern Federation as the Biscay Federation.[1]
The Cantabrian Federation
The Federación Cántabra de Fútbol was officially established in 1922. The first match of the Cantabria team as the official team of the Cantabrian Federation happened two years later, on March 9, 1924 against the team of the Aragonese federation, the result was 3-0 for the Cantabria team.
