From 1991 to 2010 it was controlled and organized by the (Difutbol), an entity dependent on the Colombian Football Federation; Currently this category is disappeared, but Difutbol seeks to reorganize it again, with a format in which the champion of this category is granted promotion to Primera B and so on for two years , then there would be two descents from B to C and vice versa. It seeks to approve the resurgence of the Primera C beginning in 2021; however, promotion and relegation from Primera B must be approved by the professional branch (Dimayor). The Primera A is the only one in the top-20 of the IFFHS that does not have a third division. [1]
History
Background
For the year 1990 the Dimayor created the second division in Colombia, and at the same time the need arose for the new tournament, was relegated to a lower category, thus being born a third division. For the year 1991 the Primera C began with the participation of amateur teams and affiliates of professional teams, something proposed by the Dimayor.
In all editions, the teams were divided into regional groups, each region had its semifinal and final and at the end of each zone had a representative for the final quadrangular, which was played in a single venue. The first champion of this contest was Millionarios, after finishing first in the final home run, however for the first edition there was no promotion. In the event that an affiliate team obtained the title, the winning team sold or transferred the token in the silver category. This situation occurred in 1993, when the Unión Magdalena subsidiary, which was able to rise by changing tab and forming the Deportivo Samarios that played in the second division of the year 1994. Also in the year 1996 where the champions were the minor divisions of America, and the card was transferred to Atlético Buenaventura which was the team that was promoted for the year 1997 . In the year 1998 America was champion again and possibly rented its file to the team Palmira FC that rose for the season of 1999.
It should be noted that this division was promoted by teams that today are in Primera A and Primera B such as Deportivo Pasto and La Equodad. The category was played uninterruptedly and with very high numbers of clubs (from 66 to 185). Of Chicó Fútbol club it is commonly said that he rose to be champion of the C in the year 2000, but in reality, Cortuluá owner of a token in B that he bought from América, gave him a token or a place in Primera B 2001 replacing Unión Meta. The champion of the 2000 edition was actually El Cerrito FC.
The problems started in the year 1999, where some leaders of the professional division were against a professional team (affiliated to DIMAYOR) becoming an amateur team upon relegation. In 2001, with the tournament already weakened, the tournament champion was the subsidiary of Medellín, and the solution regarding promotion was to hold a Primera B mixed with the reserves of the teams of First division, this for the year 2002. From the next one, the promotion between second and third division ended.
Nevertheless, the Difutbol continued to organize the tournament until 2010, but without a sports award for the champion. There have been many attempts to revive the third division to the Colombian Professional Soccer but no agreement has ever been reached with the Dimayor. In 2014, after many unsuccessful attempts the Difutbol created the U-23 Tournament with 10 teams, trying to emulate the First C, but in the same way an agreement was not reached with the professional branch.
