Encyclopedia
Club Gimnàstic de Tarragona, usually referred to as Nàstic, is a Spanish
sports club
based in Tarragona
, in the autonomous community of Catalonia
. Its football team currently plays in Segunda División
.
The club was founded in 1886, as a result being listed as one of the oldest football clubs in Spain
. It has teams competing in athletics, basketball
, tennis
, gymnastics
, table tennis
and futsal
, but did not actually form a football team until 1914, with the side enjoying a three-year La Liga
spell in its beginnings (1947–50).
Since 1972, the team plays home games at Nou Estadi
, which seats 16,600 spectators.
. Later the club members also began to organise fencing
, hiking
, boxing
and cycling
. In 1914, the club absorbed a local football club called Club Olímpic de Tarragona and consequently formed its own football team, using the former colours of Olímpic: red, white and black. In those days, it played home matches in the Avenida Catalunya stadium.
In January 1918, Gimnàstic made its debut as a football team in the Championat de Catalunya and, by 1927, were crowned champions of its second division. In 1943–44, the team first appeared in the Tercera División
and, in the following season were promoted to the second division
.
In 1946–47, Nàstic finished second in the second division and, the following season, arrived in the top flight
. In 1947 they also reached the Copa del Generalísimo
semi-final, but lost to RCD Espanyol
, having beaten FC Barcelona
in the quarterfinals.
The team finished its debut first division season in seventh place, with the highlight of the season coming on 11 January 1948, with a 3–1 win against Real Madrid
at the Bernabéu
, thus becoming the first team ever to do so. The club played two further seasons in the top level, being relegated in 1949–50 after losing a play-off to CD Alcoyano
; it moved to the new Nou Estadi
in 1972.
In 2006–07, Gimnàstic returned to the top flight, 56 years later. Along with coach Luis César Sampedro
remained some of the players responsible for the promotion
, as veteran Antonio Pinilla
, and Albano Bizarri
, Rubén Castro, Ariza Makukula
and Javier Portillo
(eventually the team's top scorer), were also brought in. However, the club was placed in the relegation zone for 33 of the 38 rounds, eventually dropping down a division; Sampedro was replaced in midseason by Paco Flores, who improved the team's numbers but could not avoid relegation.
