The 1891 Primera División was the first ever Argentine championship making Argentina's the oldest football league outside Continental Europe. This tournament was organized by the Argentine Association Football League whose president was F.L. Wooley. This league only lasted one season, so in 1892 no championship was held. In 1893 other Association with the same name would be established by Alexander Watson Hutton becoming current Argentine Football Association.

Charles Douglas Moffatt was an English footballer, considered one of the pioneers of the sport in Argentina, active in the country as a player between 1891 and 1901.
