EspañolS.C. SALGUEIROS
(Redirected from Salgueiros)
'Sport Comércio e Salgueiros' (pron. ), commonly abbreviated as 'SC Salgueiros', is a sports club founded on December 11, 1911, in Paranhos (Oporto), Portugal.
In 1911, a group of friends (João da Silva Almeida, Aníbel Jacinto and Antenor) decided to fund a football club after watching the derby FC Porto-SL Benfica at the Campo da Rainha. The friends would gather after work and dinner at lamp 1047 between the Constituição and Particular de Salgueiros streets to debate ideas and build their new club.
The club had no money at the time, so the three founders decided to gather money by singing Christmas songs from door to door during the 1911 Christmas season. The group collected a total of 2800 reis, which was enough to purchase their first football. They decided their jerseys should be red like Benfica's.
Their first pitch would be at the Arca D'Água, and the team's first matches were against Sport Progresso, Carvalhido Football Club, and others.
In 1916/17 the team was name was changed to Sport Porto and Salgueiros as a matter of local pride. However, in 1920, after a profound economical crisis, Sport Porto and Salgueiros decided to join forces with another local club named Sport Comércio. Sport Comércio e Salgueiros played in the first division for several years.
The club has excelled at several sports, such as football (soccer), water polo, handball and athletics. Despite the fact that Salgueiros doesn't have a swimming pool, the water polo team, coached by Nuno Mariani, won its 12th national title in a row in 2006.
The senior football team, facing perhaps its biggest economical crisis since its foundation, was administratively relegated from the second national division (liga de honra) to the second national division B North (segunda divisão B, zona Norte) in the season 2004/05. Due to the financial crisis, all the players in the 2004/05 season were non-professional, mostly upgraded players from the junior team.
The club had also recently lost its emblematic stadium, (Estádio Engenheiro Vidal Pinheiro), which had been sold to the city hall in order to build a subway station at its location, and had no home arena in which to play their matches or to practice.
Due to the dramatic finantional situation the team was folded on the end of the 2004/2005 season. Currently there are efforts to bring back the football club but nothing is decided yet
