With laurel leaves
Fifty years after the club was founded the club’s badge was remodelled and the colours were changed to make a closer match to the team’s shirt. The acronym was now black on a yellow band and two laurel leaves were added to celebrate the club’s 50th anniversary.
1960
Name in full
In the Sixties the laurels marking the 50th anniversary were removed, the full name was written on the yellow band and a black border was added to make the badge stand out.
1970
One title, one star
In the Seventies, on the initiative of President Alberto J. Armando, one star was added to the badge for each title won, and was greatly received. The initials returned on the badge and the outline was yellow.
1996
More stars
To make room for the stars for the previous 10 years of titles, the yellow band was removed and the initials were written in yellow to give the badge a greater visual impact.
