Club Pueyrredón, also nicknamed Puey, is an Argentine rugby union and field hockey club from the Boulogne Sur Mer area of San Isidro Partido, Greater Buenos Aires. The rugby team currently plays in the Torneo de la URBA Grupo I, the first division of the Unión de Rugby de Buenos Aires league system.

The institution was founded in 1953 in San Isidro and named as a tribute to Juan Martín de Pueyrredón, an Argentine brigadier general from the 19th century. Pueyrredón was founded and developed in San Isidro, where the two most famous rugby clubs of Argentina, Club Atlético San Isidro and San Isidro Club are from.

In 2010 Pueyrredón was relegated to the second division, along with Banco Nación.[3]
