Arapongas Esporte Clube

Club from the city of Arapongas, in northern Paraná, traditional participant in the access divisions of the Paraná Championship.

History

Founded in the early 1970s, Arapongas Esporte Clube established itself as one of the main clubs from the interior of Paraná, alternating participation between the second and third divisions of the state championship. Throughout its trajectory, the club developed players who went on to play for larger teams in Paraná, serving as a regional talent nursery. Despite never having consistently competed in the elite of Paraná football, the Phantom maintains relevance in the scenario of amateur and semi-professional football in the metropolitan region of Londrina.
