Deportivo Alavés C, S.A.D., usually known as Alavés C, was a Spanish football team based in Vitoria-Gasteiz, in the autonomous community of Basque Country. Founded in 1980 as AD Zaldiaran, it was the second reserve team of Deportivo Alavés.
The team's home kit was blue and white-striped shirt, blue shorts and white socks.
History
In 2000, AD Zaldiaran (founded 1980), a small club from Vitoria-Gasteiz which had just been promoted to Tercera División[1] was fully incorporated as Deportivo Alavés C[2] and competed in the fourth tier for three seasons until 2002–03.
Thereafter a four-year partnership was agreed with another local team, Club San Ignacio[3] (previously associated with Real Sociedad and the formative club of Spain international forward Ernesto Valverde). The affiliate became known as Alavés C-San Ignacio[4] maintaining the Alavés name but playing in San Ignacio colours and usually hosting fixtures at their home ground Adurtzabal.[3] When this entity was relegated in 2004–05, the Alavés link was discontinued.
San Ignacio continued operating independently and have since returned to the Tercera level twice (on each occasion their opponents included the other reserve side of Alavés,[3] with both teams being relegated in 2008–09).
