Escuela Integral de San Pablo Tacachico are a Salvadoran professional football club based in San Pablo Tacachico, La Libertad, El Salvador.

The club currently plays in the Segunda División de Fútbol Salvadoreño.

History

In 2014, the club participe in the third division

On 5 July 2015, the club had purchased a license to be able to compete in the newly increased second division.[1]

San Pablo Municipal won the club first segunda division title, winning the Clausura 2019 title, after they defeated Platense 4–1 in penalties after tying in a two-legged series 3-3.[2]

This was title was followed with the most devastating event in the club history, as San Pablo were unable to defeat El Vencedor (who were the 2018 Apertura Champion) in a promotion playoff 6–5 after penalties, after tying 0–0. Which prevented the club to play in the primera division (the top division in El Salvador) for the first time ever in the club history.[3]

On 29 June 2024, EF San Pablo Tacachico announced on the team social media platform that due to several sponsors pulling support, high team cost and lack of fans support, the club announced they would be withdrawing from the Segunda Division.[4]
