Sport Boys Association is a Peruvian football club from Callao. It’s commonly called Sport Boys or simply the Boys, and they are nicknamed Los Rosados (the Pink Ones) and other names like Boys Los Rosados and La Nube Rosada. The club was founded on July 28, 1927.

They play in the Peruvian Primera División, the top division, and their home stadium is Estadio Miguel Grau, which fits about 17,000 spectators. The team is famous for its pink kit, a color tradition that started in 1929 and has stayed since.

Sport Boys’ biggest rival is Atlético Chalaco, and their matches are known as the Clásico Porteño. The club is one of Peru’s most historic teams, with six national titles and many appearances in international competitions, second only to the big three clubs in Peru.

Their last league title came in 1984. They have appeared in the Copa Libertadores several times (1967, 1985, 1991) and also played in the Copa CONMEBOL in 1999. The club has faced financial problems and has yo-yoed between the top division and the second division, with promotions in 1989, 2009, and 2017. In 2022, they qualified for the Copa Sudamericana for the first time.

Sport Boys share Estadio Miguel Grau with Academia Cantolao and Universidad de San Martín de Porres.
