History
In 1993 Tiago, a goalkeeper who went on to have a very large spell with Sporting Clube de Portugal, arrived at the club, and stayed for two years before returning to his alma mater. Apart from him, other players groomed at Sporting would eventually represent the club: Luís Boa Morte, Carlos Fernandes and Miguel Vargas, amongst others.
Later on, Lourinhanense signed a new protocol of cooperation, now with F.C. Alverca, receiving players like Manú, who later played for S.L. Benfica.
In the season of 2005-06, the main team played in the championship of the 1st Division of Honor, in Lisbon's Football Association. After a third place in the following year, it was declared that the side's main objective was to achieve financial sanitation.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“You that would judge me do not judge alone
This book or that, come to this hallowed place
Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
And say my glory was I had such friends.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It gives me the greatest pleasure to say, as I do from the bottom of my heart, that never in the history of the country, in any crisis and under any conditions, have our Jewish fellow citizens failed to live up to the highest standards of citizenship and patriotism.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
