Club Atletico Talleres de Remedios de Escalada
Club Atletico Talleres (usually referred as Talleres de Escalada) are a football club from Remedios de Escalada in Buenos Aires, Argentina. They currently play in Primera B Metropolitana, which is the regionalised third tier of the Argentine Football Association.
The club were founded in 1906 with the name Talleres United Football Club. They were formed by the amalgamation of two teams; Los Talleres and General Paz. The selection of the name Talleres United followed an Argentinian tradition of giving football teams English names, other examples include; Boca Juniors, River Plate, All Boys, Racing Club and Chaco For Ever.
The club survived several disbandings, amalgamations and name changes. The most famous amalgamation was with Lanus in 1934, but it did not last long, and the amalgamation soon separated into the two clubs. In 1938 Talleres were relegated and have never returned to the Primera Division.
