'''Club Comunicaciones''' is an [[Argentina|Argentine]] [[sports club]] based in the [[Agronomía]] district of [[Buenos Aires]]. The [[association football|football]] team currently plays in [[Primera B Metropolitana]], the regionalised third division of the [[Argentine football league system]].

==History==
The club was founded for a group of employees of the Argentine [[Post office]] company. The name chosen was ''Club Atlético Correos y Telégrafos'', referring to the name of the State mail company they worked for. In 1953 the club changed to its current name.

At a sporting level, Comunicaciones offers a large variety of activities, such as gymnasiums, basketball courts, roller hockey, handball, tennis courts, extra football pitches and the main stadium.
The club also is famous for having hosted the [[carnival]] celebrations during the 1950s and 1960s.

The colors that identify the club (yellow and black) were adopted because of those were the distinctive colors used by mail companies worldwide.<ref>[http://www.taringa.net/posts/deportes/1780611/Club-Comunicaciones.html Datos sobre el Club Comunicaciones]</ref>
The football squad has never played in the top category in Argentina.
