History
After an amateur XI from the city of Porto Seguro reached the final of the Campeonato Baiano Intermunicipal, André Santos "Negão" started a project to create a professional club in the city, with their official foundation date being set on 2 February 2024, the day of their affiliation to the Federação Bahiana de Futebol.[1] Registered in the 2024 Campeonato Baiano Second Division, the club played their first official match on 8 June, a 0–0 away draw against SSA FC.[2]
After defeating Fluminense de Feira in the semifinals, Porto achieved a first-ever promotion to the Campeonato Baiano,[3] but lost the finals to Colo Colo.[4] During the 2025 Baiano, the club finished fifth in the competition and qualified to the 2026 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D.[5]
