History

A club called Club Atlético Dock Sud was founded in 1914, but it was soon dissolved. In 1916 the same individuals formed a new club named Sportivo Dock Sud, denomination which has remained since.

Dock Sud was one of the most important teams of the Amateur era in Argentine football. Having played in the Primera between 1922 and 1926, the team finished 3rd in 1924. Dock Sud returned to the top flight in 1933 and 1934, when the squad participated in the AAF Amateur league.

Dock Sud's finest achievement to date was winning the 1933 Amateur AAF league title. The team has had little success since turning professional other than a few lower league titles. In May, 2011, Dock Sud obtained a new title, promoting to Primera C Metropolitana
