Albion F.C.
During its first years of existence, the club refused to accept non-native players although most of its footballers were British descendants but born in Uruguay.Other changes were introduced such as the replacement of the jersey so red and blue colors were adopted as a tribute to the flag of Great Britain.Albion won the most games played between both teams from 1895 to 1897, when they had an extraordinary series of 14 consecutive wins over Peñarol with only one draw in between.By those times, some players left the club: Ernesto Caprario, Carlos Carve Urioste and Domingo Prat all moved to Uruguay Athletic.Other players that left the institution were Céspedes brothers, Cuadra, Reyes, Castro, Bouton and Nebel, who later founded Club Nacional de Football.Albion would make poor performances during the successive seasons, with its worst campaign being the 1905 tournament where the team finished with no points.The club also took part in the Federación Uruguaya de Fútbol Amateur, winning consecutive titles in 1953 and 1954.[9] From 2018 to 2021, the club played in Segunda División, and earned promotion to the top division in the 2021 season by winning the title and finishing first in the table with 44 points.
