History
On 28 June 1928 the club named S.D. Gimnástica Segoviana was officially created with Francisco del Barrio being elected as its first president.
After playing since its foundation between Tercera División and the Regional leagues, Gimnástica Segoviana promoted to Segunda División B for the first time in 1999, but the club could not remain in the league and was immediately relegated after its first season in the third tier.
In 2011, Gimnástica segoviana repeated success, this time after beating Arroyo CP, SD Noja and SD Logroñés in the promotion play-offs, but again was relegated in the next season. Five years later, the club would come back to the third tier after beating Atlético Malagueño by a huge 4–1 overall in the promotion play-offs.
