Brothers Román and Gerardo Ferrat alongside Filiberto Navas created the Deportivo Toluca Futbol Club. In 1950, the team joined the recently formed Segunda División, advancing to Mexican Primera División in 1953.
The team won three consecutive championships in 1966 and 1967 under coach Ignacio Trelles. In 1975 Toluca won the championship one more time. Coached by Uruguayan Ricardo de León, Toluca played a style of game that was consistently criticized as ultra-defensive but won the championship by defeating León in the final-four mini-tournament 1-0, with the lone goal being scored by Ecuadorian Ítalo Estupiñan. This is the only time the Mexican Championship has been decided by a round-robin, two-legged, mini-tournament.
In 1997 Enrique 'Ojitos' Meza became the coach of the team, after reaching the finals of the Mexican league with Toros Neza. Toluca resurged, its tactical scheme was very offensive, which was very characteristic of its coach. It was not atypical to see scores like 5-3. The offensive idea suited perfectly the Paraguayan José Saturnino Cardozo, who became the best scorer of the league in four occasions.
Toluca won the championship in 1998, the first one in twenty years. With Enrique Meza Enríquez as coach, Toluca won the championship three times in a period of three years.
