They play home matches at Campo Vale de Abelha, which has a capacity of around 6,000 spectators.[1]

History

[edit]

The club was established by a group of local sports enthusiasts and registered with the Associação de Futebol de Setúbal shortly after its foundation.[1]

Since then, Paio Pires FC has competed predominantly in district-level leagues, supporting both senior and youth football as well as a futsal section.[1]

Recent developments

In March 2024, the club's board responded publicly to allegations raised by an opposing slate during internal elections—highlighting its active civic engagement.[2]

The club is headquartered at Avenida José António Rodrigues, 45, and operates training at Vale de Abelha, both in Paio Pires.
