Sporting Cristal was established on 13 December 1955 in the Rímac district of
Lima by Ricardo Bentín and his wife, Esther Grande, the owners of the Backus &
Johnson brewery. The club's original name, Sporting Cristal Backus, for the
Cristal beer brewed by Backus, was shortened to Sporting Cristal in 1968.
The club registered in the First League in 1956 and won the national title,
therefore its nickname, "the club that was born champion". Since then, Sporting
Cristal has been continuously playing in the First League, winning 18 national
titles and becoming the first Peruvian club to win three titles in a row (1994,
1995, 1996). The club played 31 times the Copa Libertadores, being runner-up in
1997 (0-0, 0-1 to Cruzeiro, Brazil).
The club top scorer (175 goals, 566
caps; 1993-1999, 2000-2003 and 2004-2007) is Jorge Soto (b. 1971), also capped
101 times in the national team (1992-2007; 9 goals).

The first
emblem of the club was celestial blue with a white diagonal stripe running from
the lower hoist to the upper fly and charged with the initials "SCB"; the upper
part of the emblem bore the Peruvian national colors. The emblem was soon
modified by mirroring the diagonal stripe, which runs from the upper hoist to
the lower fly. Letter "B" was dropped when the club was renamed to Sporting
Cristal. The base of the shield was changed from oval to pointed. The shield in
current use is pentagonal, with its vertical borders thicker than the
horizontal ones. The three yellow stars surmounting the shield were added in
1997 to celebrate the three national titles won in a row.
