History
The difficulties of S.C. Olhanense began to be visible after their most recent stint in the Primeira Liga, reaching a breaking point between the SAD and the club. The risk of extinction was real, as when the SAD was founded, a protocol was signed stipulating that the club could not engage in senior football unless under the authority of the SAD.[1]
However, it was only in the 2023–24 season that Olhanense 1912 played its first season in senior football, after the SAD of S.C. Olhanense decided to forgo participation in the 1st Division of the A.F. Algarve that season. Olhanense will remain without senior football until the dismantling of the SAD.[2][3]
However, thanks to the signing of a contract, Olhanense 1912 was able to register a senior team and share facilities with S.C. Olhanense. Their debut was in the 2nd Division of the A.F.A., and Olhanense 1912 achieved promotion to the 1st Division of the district in their very first season, as the champions.[4][5]
In the board of Olhanense 1912 is Manuel Cajuda, a renowned former player and football coach from Olhão.[6]
