History
Originally founded in 2016, Hermanos Colmenarez first reached the Venezuelan Tercera División in the 2017 season. In December of that year, the club merged with then Tercera División champions Madeira Club Lara Asociación Civil[1] (which was founded on 19 February 2015), and started to play in the Segunda División.[2]
In 2020, after two seasons with mid-table positions, Hermanos Colmenarez won the second division after defeating Llaneros de Guanare in the semifinals and Universidad Central de Venezuela in the finals.[3]
After rumours of a name change beginning in December 2023,[4] Hermanos Colmenarez confirmed their change of name to Inter de Barinas on 30 January 2024.[5]
