From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Club Atlético Progreso, usually known simply as Progreso is an Uruguayan football club based in Montevideo.
The club was founded on April 30th, 1917. The team colours are red and yellow striped, emulating the catalonian flag. Their home field is Parque Abraham Paladino with a capacity of 8000 spectators. In 1989 Progreso won the Uruguayan Primera División,Although it must be admitted that the '89 championship was short, the only one in the history of Uruguayan league with just 1 round robin format (13 games), due to a calendar conflict with some national and international cups of that year. Progreso's President at that time was Dr. Tabaré Vázquez, who is now the President of Uruguay. The first kit of progreso was all white with black stripes in the jersey,the second red/black in stripes for their anarkist side,and then they changed to red/yellow because of the flag of Catalonia, because in that time Catalonia was considererd the place with more anarkists in the world.
