Source-derived summary

Club Atlético Zamora is a Spanish football team based in Zamora in the autonomous community of Castile and León. Founded in 1943, they play in the Primera Provincial – Zamora, holding home matches at the Campo Anexo Ruta de la Plata.

History

Founded on 6 January 1943, Atlético Zamora was invited to play their inaugural season in the 1943–44 Tercera División, but gave up their place to SD Ponferradina. In 1964, they disappeared due to debts, but Antonio Fernández Carbajo refounded the club in 1972; in the meantime, Zamora CF was founded in 1968 and became the city's main club.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “CA Zamora” as association football club in Spain. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful synthesis for locating the documentary relationships between formal authority, participants and affected communities. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1943, 1964, 1972, 1968—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1943. The account is most persuasive where Zamora, association and football can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the history & society register because the source frames it as association football club in Spain. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 26, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q118976143. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1943, 1964, 1972 and 1968.

Critical limits

Later summaries often reconcile disputed chronology or motive more neatly than the contemporary record permits. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Compare institutional narratives with records created by participants and affected communities. Dates and formal titles are useful anchors, but not substitutes for context.
