History
Provincial Osorno were founded on 5 June 1983 by a group of amateur football and local authorities, who designed Sergio Toloza as the first Provincial Osorno's Chairman.
In July 1983, the club appointed Juan Soto as manager. Six local amateur players
were included in the first squad. Later that year the club played their first official
Primera B match against Lota Schwager, at the ''Estadio Bancario de Osorno'' (P. Osorno won 2–1).
Two years later the club became very popular, resulting in many home sell out crowds in the
Estadio Parque Schott that season.
In their early campaigns Provincial Osorno struggles to show good results on the pitch.
Only in 1990, Provincial Osorno finally won the second division title to win promotion to the ''Primera Division'' for the first time, under the direction of manager ''Guillermo Yavar'', but they finished near the bottom of the table and were relegated in 1991.
The return to the second division in 1992 owes a great deal to the appointment of manager
Jorge Garcés, who brought new tactics and a new training regime resulting in an impressing campaign that year.
This time the club managed to stay in the top flight until 1998, with regular campaigns, with the exception of 1996, when, under the direction of manager
Oscar "Cacho" Malbernat they finished 6th.
In 1999 they won promotion to the ''Primera Division'' in a playoff with

Universidad Católica on penalties, in the highly controversial second-leg match.
