C.A. PEñAROL
'Club Atlético Peñarol' is a traditional football team in Montevideo, Uruguay. Peñarol as such was officially named on December 13th, 1913 by former members of the English "Central Uruguay Railway Cricket Club" (CURCC). CURCC itself was founded on September 28, 1891. It's a three-times World Champion football club.
Peñarol is named after its home neighborhood, which in turn takes its name from the town of Pinerolo, Italy.
Peñarol's colors, yellow and black, derive from the colors used in railway signs and barriers.

The F.U.F era
Peñarol and Central founded the F.U.F (Uruguayan futbol federation) in 1923 after being expulsed from A.U.F due to playing matches with the argentine amateur(in that time) teams of Racing Club de Avellaneda and Club Atletico Independiente.The F.U.F even made a parallel Uruguayan national team (dissident to that of A.U.F) that played several international games based on Peñarol and Central squads.Some clubs like Montevideo Wanderers fielded one team in each organization hiding their AUF name in the FUF as "Atletico Wanderers". After 3 years of existence the new federation was dissolved and the teams returned to A.U.F.

From 1922 to 1925 the Uruguayan Football was divided in two organisations: Uruguayan Football Association (AUF), recognised by FIFA, and the dissident Uruguayan Football Federation (FUF), of which Peñarol was one of the founders and competed in the three tournaments organised by that federation in 1923, 1924 and 1925 (not finished). Those championships are not recognised by the AUF
The "Consejo Provisorio" championship played in 1926 was not played under the regulations of the Uruguayan Football Association, being a joint Uruguayan Championship between all clubs from AUF and FUF when the two organisations merged. In consequence, is not recognised by AUF as a uruguayan championship.
