==History==
=== Origins in football ===
Quilmes was founded on April 12, 1922, by a group of young people who used to play football in some of the many unoccupied lands that existed in Mar del Plata in those times. They want to participate in competitions organised by "Asociación Marplatense de Foot-Ball" so they founded a club with the purpose of registering to the Association.<ref name=hmdp>[https://web.archive.org/web/20141226083847/http://www.historiamardelplata.com.ar/deportes/clubes.fundacion.html Historia de Mar del Plata - Clubes ordenados por fechas]</ref>

At the beginning those boys did not have a physical place for their meetings and because of that the Club Ferroviario (founded and integrated by employees of the [[Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway]] ("Ferrocarril Sud" in Spanish) allowed them to use their buildings. The raising club also was helped by people from the neighbourhood, who made their contributions. Furthermore, the most important donation was given by the legal representatives of beer company [[Quilmes (beer)|Quilmes]] in Mar del Plata, José Deyaccobi, who donated the club a set of uniform jerseys, which were equal to [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] kit. That was the origin of the name and colours of the club.

Quilmes' first President was Eugenio Moure, who also composed the official anthem of the club along with the musicians Luis Duhalde and Francisco Mafia.<ref>[http://www.caquilmes.com.ar/el-club/fundacion/ Historia de Quilmes de Mar del Plata]</ref>

Like most of Argentine clubs, football was the first sport practised in Quilmes, which is considered a pioneer in the city. Moreover, Quilmes' stadium was the frequent host of all the matches played in Mar del Plata.<ref>[http://www.mardelplata-ayer.com.ar/deportes.html Mar del Plata ayer] by Armando Maronese</ref> At the beginning, Quilmes' headquarters were located on 25 de Mayo streets. A basketball court would be added later.<ref name=oficial>[http://www.clubquilmes.org/index.php/es/sitio-oficial-del-club-atletico-quilmes/club-atletico-quimes/el-club/historia Historia del club] on Quilmes official site, 28 Dec 2012</ref> The basketball section was added in the 1930s, winning its first title in 1947.<ref name=hmdp/>

The first football venue was built where Moreno Park is located nowadays. In that venue Quilmes played a friendly match v. [[Santos FC]] with [[Pelé]] as an outstanding host of the city, in the 1960s.<ref>[http://old.ole.com.ar/diario/2002/01/13/r-00801f.htm Fútbol de verano: Nuestros años felices], ''Olé'', 13 Jan 2002</ref> The football squad also took part in the [[1970 Copa Argentina]], being eliminated by [[Argentinos Juniors]] (1–4 on aggregate).<ref>[https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/argcup70.html Copa Argentina 1970] by Osvaldo Gorgazzi on RSSSF.com</ref>

In 1983, Quilmes played the "Torneo Regional", after qualifying in a group with [[Club Atlético Alvarado|Alvarado]], [[Club Atlético Peñarol (Mar del Plata)|Peñarol]] and C.D. Nicanor Otamendi, but the team was eliminated in first round. The last Quilmes' participation was in the 1996–97 [[Torneo Argentino B]]. After qualifying for the second stage, Quilmes was finally eliminated by Sporting (Punta Alta) and Empleados de Comercio (Bolívar).<ref>[https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arg4-int97.html Torneo Argentino B 1996/97] on RSSSF.com</ref>

=== Basketball ===
In 1944, Quilmes affiliated to "Asociación Marplatense de Básquetbol", entering to the second division. The club won the championship that same season, therefore promoting to the first level, "Primera División". In 1947 Quilmes won its first title at the top level of "Marplatense" basketball. The team has won that championship a total of 23 times to date.

In 1987 Quilmes participated in their first national competition, the [[Liga Nacional de Básquet|LNB]] "C" (third division), where the squad defeated Regatas (San Nicolás) crowning champion and promoting to "Liga Nacional B". After several years playing in that division, Quilmes won the 1990–91 title, promoting to the LNB "A" after defeating Pico Fútbol Club by 101–91.
