The team plays in the Liga Nacional de Básquet (LNB), the first division of the Argentine league system. Boca's home games are played at the Estadio Luis Conde, also called the Bombonerita (in English: "Small Bombonera"), as a reference to the club's football stadium known as the La Bombonera.
At the local level, the club has 10 First Division championships, among which four editions of the LNB (1996–97, 2003–04, 2006–07 and 2023–24), one Torneo Top 4 in 2004 and five national cups, all of them in the Copa Argentina consecutively (top winner of the contest: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006). It also has 22 titles in the amateur era, the most notable being the 1963 Argentine Club Championship (the highest category of Argentine basketball in the amateur era).
At the international level he achieved 3 titles, all of them in the South American Championship of Champion Clubs (2004, 2005 and 2006). Adding national and international tournaments, it is the third most successful club with the most titles in the history of Argentine basketball: 14 official titles behind Peñarol (17) and Atenas (20). At the same time, it is one of the most successful teams in Argentina, since it had great prominence both in the amateur and semi-amateur era of the different metropolitan basketball leagues of the city of Buenos Aires, and in the National Basketball League, where he is one of the greatest champions, which is why he is considered one of the so-called Greats of the National Basketball League.
Great players and coaches wore the blue and gold jersey before and/or after representing the National Basketball Team and even playing in the major leagues in Europe and the NBA.
