Uniautónoma Fútbol Club, or UAC, was a professional Colombian football club based in Barranquilla, that played in the Categoría Primera A until its 2015 season. They played their home games at the Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez.[1] [2] As its name implied, Uniautónoma FC was founded by the Universidad Autónoma del Caribe.
See main article: Córdoba F.C. and Atlético de la Sabana. Uniautónoma FC was founded in 2011,[3] after Atlético de la Sabana relocated from Sincelejo. However they themselves were founded after Córdoba moved from Montería.
The club won the Categoría Primera B title in 2013, and thus were promoted to the Categoría Primera A for 2014, where they remained for two years until their relegation at the end of the 2015 season. On 27 November 2015, the Universidad Autónoma del Caribe announced the club's dissolution in a release, arguing that the club represented a huge financial burden for the university and that the university's resources should be instead directed in their entirety toward its own missional objectives as an educational institution. Therefore, maintaining the club stopped being deemed as a priority for the institution.[4] The club's affiliation rights (ficha) were sold to Orsomarso S.C. from Palmira, who began playing in the Categoría Primera B from 2016 onwards.
