History
The Club de Fútbol Caballeros de Umperia is one of the oldest clubs of Vassfforcia. It was founded on 1899, the same year as the Caballos Salvajes with whom they founded the first Vassfforcian amateur football league on 1901. Then, when the league was profesionalized on 1908 they entered into the LFV and were the first champions. Since then, they have been champions on 7 occasions, the last one on 1999.

They ussually play with a 4-3-3 formation which may be changed to a 4-2-4 formation; this is because Vaqueros is an offensive team.

Further Information
Since the team entered into the LFV, with the Montajìque’s do Sul support, there has been an infamous rivalry between the Vaqueros and the Caballos Salvajes de Montaura (Montaura Wild Horses), team supported by the Montajìque; nevertheless, this was not more but a transfer from a traditional regional rivalry between the Plenfians (Vassfforcians from Tirritidivá and Hilvenídica-Plenfia) and Montaurans.
Vaqueros’ fans are infamous for their aggressiveness through the country and when they have lost in Hilvenídica the gendarmes have been forced to intervene. Neither Hilvenídica nor Prubdablia are willing to have a match between the Vaqueros and the Wild Horses, as on their last match in Hilvenídica on 1996 nine people died and more than two hundred were injured on the riots that followed the match in spite of all the efforts made by the gendarmes.
