Club Harrods Gath & Chaves, Sports and social club in Belgrano, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Description
Club Harrods Gath & Chaves is a sports and social organization in Belgrano that spreads across about three hectares of green space with a range of facilities. The grounds include 14 clay tennis courts, a football pitch, basketball gym, volleyball courts, an ice rink, and an indoor swimming pool with training areas for weights and exercise classes.
History
The club was established in 1918 through a merger of two separate organizations founded by employees of the Gath & Chaves and Harrods department stores. This union of the two groups created the foundation for the sports facility that exists today.
Culture
The club bears the names of two department stores whose employees founded the original clubs, and this commercial heritage remains part of how members identify with the place. You will find people practicing everything from tennis to skating to martial arts, which shapes the character of the facility.
Practical
The facility is located at Virrey del Pino 1480 in an accessible neighborhood with plenty of ground space for multiple activities happening at the same time. Wear comfortable clothing and plan ahead if you want to try different sports or classes, since different facilities may have their own schedules and availability.
Did you know?
The club stands out for bringing together many different sports disciplines and maintaining connections with multiple sports federations, which sets it apart from single-sport facilities. This diversity means visitors can try several activities in one place rather than having to specialize in just one.
