Quequeisque was a professional football club in Nueva San Salvador, El Salvador, which have played the Primera División de Fútbol Profesional.

They are the only team in El Salvador besides Hércules in soccer history to win 5 or more straight championships (Salvadoran football champions).[1] Although the tournaments won were only in the Central Zone Region of El Salvador, they are often considered as national titles.

History

Quequeisque were founded in 1896, being one of the first football clubs founded in El Salvador. They got their name from the Quequeisque farm from Santa Tecla. Walter Soundy (Scottish second generation) a notable person in Santa Tecla was the founder of the team, he was the owner of the Quequeisque farm. The team won five straight titles albeit only from the central district of El Salvador. These titles are still recognized as national titles.

They participated in the very first truly national tournament in 1947 and continued until the 1963–64 season when they were relegated. The club became defunct in 1968.

However, in 2015, Jorge Rosa purchased the license of former team Real Destroyer, and the club was brought back from almost fifty years hiatus and competed in the 2015–2016 Segunda division.[2]

The venture lasted one year before they changed name and moved operations to Izalco and became Brujos de Izalco.
