Club Tacuary is a Paraguayan First Division football team, based in the neighborhood of Jara in Asunción. The club was founded in 1923.
Tacuary qualified for the Copa Libertadores tournament twice (in 2005 and 2007) and the Copa Sudamericana three times (in 2007, 2012 and 2023). In 2013 it returned to the Paraguayan Segunda División.
In the 2021 season of Paraguay's División Intermedia, Tacuary finished 3rd and was promoted to the Primera División.
Over the years Tacuary's youth academy has produced players such as Ramón Cardozo, Hernán Pérez, Luis Páez, Ronald Huth and Brian Montenegro, as well as other young players that have been sold to important club in the European and Mexican leagues.
The club has traditionally played at the 3,000 capacity Estadio Toribio Vargas which is based in Jara neighbourhood. Between 2002 and 2014 however, the club played at the 7,000 capacity Roberto Bettega in the Zeballos Cué neighbourhood. In 2014 the club sold the stadium to a port company for 10 million dollars, and it was subsequently demolished. The club is now back playing in its traditional home.[_citation needed_]
