Xerez Club Deportivo S. A. D. is a Spanish football club based in the city of Jerez de la Frontera. It was founded in 1947 and plays in .
From 1942 to 1947 the club had several names, ending with Jerez Club Deportivo, which was changed to the current name in the 1960s. Xerez first reached the second division in 1953–54, remaining there for five years; previously, in the 1940s, the team had promoted on the field but, due to the "high national interest" of the Francoist Spain, left its position to España de Tánger.

The team's new stadium, Estadio Municipal de Chapín, was inaugurated on 10 July 1988, replacing the old Estadio Domecq – the first match there was a friendly against Real Madrid. After decades in that category and also in the third, it had a 2001–02 second level campaign which almost resulted in an historic La Liga promotion, only one year after doing the same thing; the club seemed certain to gain promotion all season, but ultimately failed after a dramatic loss of form towards its closure, only gaining four points in the last eight matches.
Since then, Xerez finished in the top 10 in division two each campaign, except in the 2007–08 season when a weak start led to a 15th-place finish. The following campaign proved excellent, as the club was always in the top positions: on 13 June 2009, after beating SD Huesca 2–1 at home, it achieved promotion to the top division for the first time in its history. In the final day of the competition, a draw at Celta de Vigo proved enough for the title, as CD Tenerife lost 1–2 home to CD Castellón in the final minute.

The first season of Xerez in the top flight would be short-lived, as it ended in relegation. After only collecting seven points from the first 19 games – which led to the sacking of coach José Ángel Ziganda – the club amassed 27 in the remaining 19 with Néstor Gorosito as boss, not good enough however to prevent the drop as last (the club, however, had chances to stay up until the final round, a 1–1 draw at CA Osasuna).
Xerez ranked eighth and 14th in the two following second level seasons, respectively. The 2012–13 campaign, however, was disastrous on all levels, as the team finished in 22nd and last position as a direct consequence of enduring serious financial difficulties for several years, La afición crece pese a las dificultades (Fanbase grows in spite of difficulties); La Voz Digital, 26 November 2011 Setién: "Los jugadores del Xerez tienen mucho mérito" (Setién: "The Xerez players deserve a lot of credit"); El Mundo Deportivo, 28 March 2013 and the situation culminated with the club being relegated to the fourth division on 1 August.

After the Xerez's season, a group of supporters founded a new club in the lower leagues, named Xerez Deportivo FC due to the club's institutional problems.

They managed a 16th-place finish in the 2017–18 season, avoiding relegation and managing another season in the Spanish fourth tier.
In the 2023–24 season, Xerez C.D. is fighting for promotion to the Segunda RFEF. This same season, the team has broken a record of going through the first 9 days of the league without conceding a goal. Apart from fighting for promotion, Xerez has achieved several merits of its own, such as attracting former members again or having nearly 9,000 spectators in the fifth category of Spanish football.
The crest is clearly inspired in the badge of the city of Jerez, as it incorporates the same colors.. The crest is divided into two parts by a diagonal stripe of white background that runs from the upper right corner to the lower left. In the upper left part is the central motif of the shield of the city of Jerez, the waves in blue on a silver (white) background. In the lower right corner the letters C and D are intertwined in white with a blue background. The crest is crowned, like the city's shield, this time with a crown of five blades.
In the diagonal stripe can read, "XEREZ" in blue. Originally was designed with the word "JEREZ". The "J" was replaced by an "X" due to the initiative of the chairman Pablo Porro Guerrero, that on August 21, 1962, decides to recover the word "XEREZ" to refer to the club from which it comes, the Xerez FC.

The crest received a second modification in the 2000s, where the tone of the color was changed, making it a little softer and with a lower saturation. This minor aesthetic change was made so that the crest will stand out more against the dark blue of the uniform. Occasionally the shield is shown outside the kit in the original darker tone.
On May 31, 2017, it was announced that the patent for the crest, as well as the name "Xerez Club Deportivo" became part of Afición Xerecista.
In September 2020, on occasion of a new and exciting sports project, the club's design and communication team decides to restyle the crest, eliminating the black lines of its predecessor, with a cleaner and more modern appearance. It has also been adapted to different versions, both positive and negative, to adapt perfectly to any format.

Since that season, Xerez has been training and playing its home games in different fields in the province, and occasionally does so in the Jerez stadiums of La Juventud, La Canaleja, La Granja, El Torno or Picadueñas.
During the 2017/18 season, Xerez played at home in seven different stadiums: Chapín, La Juventud, El Palmar (Sanlúcar de Barrameda), Antonio Fernández Marchán (Guadalcacín), Andrés Chacón (La Barca), Municipal Sánchez Portella (Torrecera) and Municipal of El Torno (El Torno). Currently, they play their home games at the Municipal de Chapín.
One of the stands with the most attendance was "Preferencia". This used to fill from the top, but it lacked the feel of the "Fondo Sur". The "Tribuna" was frequented by well-known people in Jerez. The presidential box, the VIP boxes and the radio broadcast booths are also located there. The area with the greatest lack of influx was "Fondo Norte". The fourth stand of the stadium is the "Fondo Norte", which was not numbered at the request of the fans, since it was this stand that had the most attendance and atmosphere. It used to be full both upstairs and downstairs in important matches, but due to promotion to the La Liga, this stand was numbered, like the "Fondo Norte", to comply with the regulations.
This multi-sports stadium is blamed for a major drawback: the difficulty of vision for spectators due to the separation distance between the stands and the grass, due to the presence of the athletics tracks. Possible solutions to this problem have always been considered. In October 2006, a reform was planned that consisted of eliminating the athletics tracks, continuing the high stands of "Preferencia" and "Tribuna", and creating two new "Fondos". The exterior appearance of the stadium would not suffer any changes, but its construction was not approved. After the xerecista promotion, an extra stand was approved for the grandstand area, since it has reduced visibility due to the benches, increasing the number of seats available. Initially, the use of these stands was contemplated for the most important matches, such as the visits of Real Madrid or FC Barcelona, but finally they were maintained throughout the season, although in recent days the City Council requested their removal on the occasion of the celebration. of the school Olympics held annually in the stadium. For the 2010–11 season, the commentary area in the upper stand, which had been in the lower stand since the previous season, was left free and occupied with seats for fans.
During the 2001-02 season, while Chapín was being remodeled for the 2002 equestrian games, Xerez played in other stadiums such as the "El Palmar Stadium" in Sanlúcar de Barrameda or "Bahía Sur" in San Fernando. Finally he returned to Jerez to play first in the remodeled Estadio de la Juventud and finally in Chapín.
The Xerez uniform has maintained constant standards throughout its history, with the blue shirt, white shorts and blue socks. The away uniform usually has a white shirt and socks, with blue pants. The third kit is the most varied, having been black, pink, wine, green or orange.
