History

The club was founded by British immigrants as "Club Central Argentino de Migueletes", then changing its name to "Ferrocarril Central Argentino".
With the nationalization of the railways in Argentina in 1948, all the lines changed their names to honor notable presidents of the country. The "Central Argentino" was renamed "Ferrocarril General Bartolomé Mitre" in honor of military officer and historian Bartolomé Mitre, and the club changed its name as well.
The men's team was finalist in the 2013 Torneo Metropolitano after defeating San Fernando but then Mitre would lose the championship at the hands of Banco Provincia.
The women's team was about to be relegated in 2013, but they defeated San Isidro Club by 1–0, remaining in the first division.
