The Liceo Naval Militar "Almirante Brown" (named after Irish-Argentine admiral William Brown) opened in 1947 as a high school in the city of Ensenada, Buenos Aires in Buenos Aires Province. Only 6 years laters, a sports club named "Centro De Graduados Del Liceo Naval Militar" was established by Liceo Militar alumni in a small room located on Anchorena street in Buenos Aires.[6]
