They were the second-most successful club in the amateur era of the Amapazão with 10 titles to their name. The most successful period in their history was in the late 1980s, when they won the league in three consecutive years, between 1986 and 1988. Following the professionalization of football in Amapá, however, their highest finishing position was of second place in 1991, 1993, 1998, 2005 and 2006.
