Club y Biblioteca Mariano Moreno, or simply Mariano Moreno, is an Argentine sports club sited in Moreno, Buenos Aires. Although other sports are practised at the club, Mariano Moreno is mostly known for its rugby union team, which currently plays in the Grupo II, which is the second division of the Torneo de la URBA.

History

Mariano Moreno was founded on August 30, 1915. [1]

The club's name was chosen as a tribute to lawyer and journalist Mariano Moreno, who played a decisive role in the Primera Junta, the first Government of Argentina.

Mariano Moreno has a strong rivalry with Los Matreros, the other team from the Zona Oeste of the Greater Buenos Aires. The club's best campaign was in 2010 when Mariano Moreno promoted to the Grupo I (the first division of the Torneo de la URBA), after defeating Club San Andrés de Benavídez.
