History

Match between Água Santa and São Caetano in 2015

Inaugurated on 22 May 2009 to attend amateur matches of the region, the stadium only held a professional match on 27 April 2013, when Clube Atlético Diadema beat Mauaense by 5–1 in a Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão match.^[1] It was named after José Batista Pereira Fernandes, a community leader in the local nearby neighbourhoods who devoted his life to the well-being of the people.^[2]

The stadium saw Água Santa's meteoric rise through the tiers of the Campeonato Paulista, but never had any night matches due to the lighting structure.^[3]
