[2] Although other sports (such as tennis and field hockey) are practised in the institution, Tucumán is mostly known for its rugby union team.
[3] For the first few years the club didn't own a ground and had to play rugby in public parks.
By the end of the 1950s the club purchased a 3 hectares plot of land in Salas y Valdez and started building its own installations.
At the national level the club reached the final of the Nacional de Clubes twice.
Many Tucumán players went on to represent Argentina at international level, the first of which was Julio Bach in 1966.
