Club Sport Rosario is a Peruvian football club, playing in the city of Huaraz. Sport Rosario was founded on October 4, 1965. The team plays its home games at Rosas Pampa stadium.
Sport Rosario was founded on October 4, 1965 in Nicrupampa which is part of the Independencia District of the city of Huaraz, Ancash by the Mautino Ángeles Family. The club's name makes reference to Our Lady of the Rosary who is the patron saint of Nicrupampa. In 1995 it adopted the colors of the Argentine club Rosario Central.
The club played at the local level for many years. Its first notorious campaign happened in the 2002 Copa Perú where it reached the departamental stage where it lost the final against the Chimbote side José Gálvez. In 2004 it would once again reach the departamental stage where they would lose in the semi-finals against that year's eventual champions Sport Ancash. In 2007 Sport Rosario reached the Regional Stage as departamental runner-up where it was seeded in Group B against Unión Tarapoto, Deportivo Davy and Carlos A. Mannucci. Unfortunately the club finished last in its group with two victories and four loses.
The club would not reach the final stages of the Copa Perú until 2014 where it would reach the National Stage for the first time in its history as the regional runner-up with financial help of Gelacio Mautino. They were eliminated in the round of 16 by Defensor La Bocana. Because of their great campaign and financial stability they were invited to participate in the Peruvian Segunda División for 2015. The Peruvian Football Federation did not allow Sport Rosario to participate in the tournament. Because of that the club did not participate in any competition in 2015 and presented a case against the Peruvian Football Federation at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
