Club Deportivo UAI Urquiza was born on May 21, 1950, in San Martin township, Buenos Aires State, as a recreation club for the employees of the Urquiza Railway. Because of this, its supporters are called “Furgoneros” (waggoneer). In 2009, it merged with the Universidad Abierta Interamericana (UAI) Sports Club to form the UAI Urquiza Sports Club. Both the Railway (light blue) and the UAI Sports Club (maroon) were merged then.
