History
Indios batter at the plate.

Indios del Bóer were established in 1905, simply as Bóer. The team's name comes from an incorrect spelling of boers, that was chosen to embody the team's values as fighters. The Indios' first uniform was: white cap, black shirt, white pants and black socks.[2]

The club was founded by Carter Donaldson, American consul in Nicaragua, his son Agustín Donaldson and Francisco Caparro. Caparro also played for the Indios as pitcher and was the team's first captain.[3]

The team has previously had the following names: Búfalos del Bóer, Bóer-Victoria and Bóer-Managua.[2]
