History

Founded in 2014 as Urkomendi 14 Futbol Kirol, the club was created to accommodate players who were released from SD Eibar.[3] In June 2016, the club joined the structure of Eibar, and became their second reserve team, behind CD Vitoria; they also changed name to SD Eibar Urko.[4]

Eibar Urko achieved a first-ever promotion to the fifth division in 2018,[5] but was unable to promote to Tercera División in the following two seasons as Vitoria was already in the category.
