History
Bangu Atlético Clube was founded on April 17, 1904 by British engineers from Companhia Progresso Industrial, a textile factory located in the Bangu neighborhood, in the western zone of Rio de Janeiro. From early on, the club stood out for opening space to workers and Black players, at a time when Carioca football was still dominated by the elite. In 1933, Rio de Janeiro's football experienced a division between amateurism and professionalism. Part of the clubs remained in AMEA, an amateur entity, while others, such as Fluminense, Vasco and America, joined the Carioca Football League, created to organize the city's first professional championship. Bangu competed in the LCF tournament and finished as champions, conquering the first Carioca title in its history and inscribing its name as the first professional champion of Rio de Janeiro. In the same year, the AMEA championship was won by Botafogo. The red-and-white club is also known for revealing the brothers Domingos da Guia and Ladislau da Guia, names linked to the formation of suburban Carioca football. Bangu would not become Carioca champion again until 1966.
