Jabatos de Nuevo León or Club de Fútbol Nuevo León is a former Mexican football club. The club was founded in 1957 in the second division.The club played in the first division among various inferior divisions from 1957 until 1990. In 1990 it was sold due to lack of fan support because they had two other professional clubs that played for the state of Nuevo León, C.F. Monterrey and Tigres de la UANL.
The club was founded by a group of local business owners Lauro Leal, César M. Saldaña, Manolo Pando y Ramón Pedroza Langarica in 1957 after the group bought Deportivo Anáhuac, who was playing in the second division at the time.
The first board of directors were:
The club made its second division debut against Reboceros De La Piedad on July 13. Carlos Guerrero scored the only goal, giving the club its first win and first goal ever. Jabatos lineup for the game was Miguel "Cabrito" Rodríguez, Muñiz, Camacho, Arizmendi, Oscar de Alba, Ignacio "Nachito" Hernández, Héctor "Píjola" Pequeño, Juan Fidalgo, Carlos Guerrero, Mingo Herrera and Orozco. Their first win at home was on July 20, 1958 in a 4–3 win over Querétaro FC with goals scored by Orozco, Fidalgo, Carlos Guerrero and Lizazo.
In 1959–60, the club was sold to Tigres due to economic problems, so for the next two years the club was used as the Tigres de la UANL inferior reserve squad from 1960–1962.
At the end of 1962, Ernesto Romero Jasso, who at the time owned the club, decided to sell the club to Sergio Salinas, who decided to bring back the club's name and colors. The club made its return to the second division playing C.F. Pachuca in their first game back, winning that match 4–2 match played in the Estadio Tecnológico. One goal was scored by Zulueta, two by "Chebo" Muñoz, and one by Paco Montes. The players in that game included Mancillas, Thompson, Bravo, Medina, "Zorro" Vargas, Montes, Chava Vargas, Gallaga, "Poncho" Rocha, Muñiz, Pequeño and Zulueta.
The club will go down in history by winning the first game ever played in Estadio Universitario after defeating the Mexico national football team. The stadium held two matches before, but the first was a 1–1 draw between C.F. Monterrey and Atlético Madrid the second was also a 1–1 draw between Jabatos and Sheffield United F.C..
