History
The Club was founded as "Club Deportivo, Social y Cultural Ferrocarril Urquiza" by Carmelo Santoro on May 21, 1950. The first players and fans of the team were employees of the General Urquiza Railway who needed a ground to play football on Saturday afternoons. The club affiliated to the Argentine Football Association in 1970 and played its first season in the "Aficionados" division (the fourth level of Argentine football league system, later renamed "Primera D").
At the beginning of the 2009–2010 season the club merged with Universidad Abierta Interamericana (UAI) to form "Club Deportivo UAI-Urquiza". Having won no titles under its old name, UAI Urquiza obtained the first season disputed by the team, the 2009–10 Primera D championship, promoting to Primera C.
In May, 2013, UAI Urquiza won the Primera C champions, therefore promoting to the upper division, Primera B Metropolitana. The squad beat Deportivo Español by 3–1, when there still had 4 fixtures to play. At the moment of the championship, UAI Urquiza had taken an advantage of 13 points over Deportivo Laferrere, the team placed 2nd.
The team is known for its skilled and dynamic style of play, with a focus on possession-based football and quick, attacking movements. UAI Urquiza Women has a dedicated fan base and plays their home matches at the Estadio Monumental de Villa Lynch.
The team has a history of success in domestic competitions, having won multiple league titles and domestic cups. They have also represented Argentina in international competitions, showcasing their talent on the global stage.
UAI Urquiza Women's team is a powerhouse in Argentine women's soccer, with a rich history and a bright future ahead. They continue to inspire and empower young girls and women to pursue their passion for soccer and strive for excellence on and off the field.
