Alacranes del Norte (formerly known as Nejapa Fútbol Club) was a football club based in Chalatenango, El Salvador.

The club last played in the Segunda División. In January 2011, it was announced that the Alacranes del Norte license had been removed by the Segunda División, following financial difficulties for the owner, Mynor Vargas and the failure of attempts to find a new ownership group.

Nejapa Fútbol Clube was formed on July 2002, thanks to collaboration with both the municipal council of Nejapa (without community collaboration) and the University of El Salvador (UES). When the equipment of the UES obtained a licence to play in the Second Division their representatives contacted René Canjura, mayor of Nejapa, to know if the town was interested in acquiring the space in the Third Division. In that month it concluded the process of inscription of the new equipment in the Third Division.

In 2004, Nejapa won promotion to the Second Division thanks to the help of both Colombian player Andrés Medina Aguirre and Manager Douglas Vidal Jiménez (former coach of ADET). In 2005/06 season Nejapa progressed all the way to the final but were then defeated by Nacional 1906.

In 2006, Carlos "El Cacho" Meléndez took the reins at Nejapa and started to sign both upcoming players and experienced ones, such as Mexican forward José Luis Osorio. In the play-off semi final they defeated Municipal Limeño to reach the final, which they played against Juventud Independiente. They won with a winning goal by Osorio and were allowed promotion to the Salvadoran Primera División for the first time.
