History and achievements
Futebol Clube Paços de Ferreira is a Portuguese club founded in 1950 in Paços de Ferreira, Porto district. Throughout many years before the professional club was created Paços de Ferreira existed as an amateur club whose members later decided to play at a higher level. The club was created midway through the 20th century when professional football in Portugal gained serious power – there were leaders and underdogs. Despite all difficulties the club was yet to experience, Paços de Ferreira adapted to the new quality as a professional club and continued to perform confidently in various national championships.
During 7 years, in 1950-1957, Paços de Ferreira played in the third regional division and became champion more than once. In 1962 design of the club logo was completed: the flag was adorned with a cross which is still there, on the official emblem.
In the middle of the 90s the club played at a very high level after winning a place in the Portuguese top league. Throughout many years Paços de Ferreira made confident game displays in the best national championship. However, in 2004 they finished 17th, which meant relegation to the national second-tier league. In spite of the disappointment the coaching staff helped the players restore their game and soon the club regained its positions and returned to the Primeira eventually. Paços de Ferreira finished 6th in the 2006/07 season and got an opportunity to qualify to the UEFA Cup. However, AZ (Netherlands) denied the Portuguese team this opportunity.
