Erandio Club are well known as a traditional club, both within and outside of Biscay. The white and blue club is one of the few in the province whose name has appeared in the select list of champions in the Spanish state, despite their best times being back in the 1930s, 1940s and early 1950s. However, they have always been within the parameters of a very modest club. One of the key characteristics of Erandio is that all of their teams have been formed by amateur players.
The club's record is excellent, and the list of players who went on to play in the First Division reinforce this. Juanín, Ipiña, Pitxi Garizurieta, Arqueta,
Zarra,
Venancio, José Luis Garay, José Luis Bilbao ''Bala Negra'' (Black Bullet), Higinio Ortúzar, Alejandro Bilbao and Sertutxa played for the team at various times. Other players such as Juan Ramón and Basauri (Valencia), Terín Álvarez (

History
Erandio club was incorporated in early 1915, though the team had been playing informally since around 1913. It played in the North Regional League, in the Second Division, until 1918. In 1916 the club acquired its own land for its pitch and opened Ategorri field in 1918.
Between 1922 and 1927, the club had a difficult time and descended to

. At the end of the 1949-1950 season, however, the club descended from the Second Division and also lost their field. Erandio played in borrowed fields until it opened New Ategorri field on 13 October 1967.
For most of the seventies, Erandio played in the
Regional Preferente. In the 1980-1981 season, the Eerandio reached the highest point of its history achieving the ascension to
Segunda B. The seventh place achieved during their 1981-1982 debut marked their best classification in the new category. The team, however, was unable to maintain its performance and was relegated to Third Division in 1984-1985. Since 1985, the club has stayed low, remaining in the Third Division (1985-1988/1992-1994), the
División de Honor (1988-1992/1994-), and the Preferente Territorial from 2007 to 2011.
In October 2010, an assembly approved the municipalization of all of the Club's properties, notably the historic Ategorri Soccer Field.
The team was unable to afford the maintenance of the field due to low attendance.
On 14 May 2011, the Erandio achieved to return to the División de Honor after four seasons by winning 4-1 to Padura.
After three seasons in the División de Honor, Erandio during the 2013-2014 season finished in second position and promoting against
Tolosa and San Inazio (Álava) winning said promotion and occupying the vacancy of the Laudio, which descended due to being unable to pay dues to the federation.
