Club Social Deportivo San Simón is a Peruvian football originally located in Moquegua, before moving to Magdalena del Mar (Lima).
History
Founded in Moquegua on 5 January 1983, as Club Deportivo Comunitario Laboral San Simón,[2] the club won the Copa Perú final in 2013, defeating Unión Huaral 2-0 and 2-3.[3] This victory allowed them to play in the first division the following year, an experience that was short-lived as San Simón was relegated to the second division at the end of the season. They were even administratively relegated from the second division due to a debt of nearly one million soles and ultimately folded.[4]
The club was re-established in Lima in 2017 under its current name thanks to the initiative of journalist Kenny Romero, who became its president. It has since participated in the Magdalena district league.[4]
