Oeste Futebol Clube

The club was founded in 1921 by two brothers from Rio de Janeiro. One was a supporter of Flamengo, while the other was a supporter of Fluminense. A training match against an amateur club from the municipality of Fazenda Itaquerê was set to decide if the club would be named Flamengo or Fluminense. With a victory, the club would be named Flamengo, while if defeated the club would be named Fluminense. The club beat their opponents 3–0, but adopted the name Oeste Futebol Clube, after the Center-West region of São Paulo state, while Flamengo's colors were chosen.

The club competed in the Campeonato Paulista Série A1 for the first time in 2004, after winning the Série A2 in the previous season.{{cite web | title = Oeste Futebol Clube | url = http://www.arquivodeclubes.com/sp/oeste.htm | archive-url = https://archive.today/20130102040622/http://www.arquivodeclubes.com/sp/oeste.htm | url-status = dead | archive-date = January 2, 2013 | access-date = February 22, 2009 | publisher = Arquivo de Clubes | language = pt }} The club returned to the Série A1 in 2009, after being defeated by Santo André in the Série A2 final in 2008.{{cite web | title = Santo André bate Oeste e conquista título da A-2 | url=http://placar.abril.com.br/noticias/html/20080601_511045.shtml | access-date = February 22, 2009 | date = June 1, 2008 | publisher=Placar |language=pt }} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}} Oeste won the 2012 Série C after beating Icasa in the final.{{cite news|title=Oeste vence Icasa, é campeão da Série C e salva honra de paulistas|url=http://espn.estadao.com.br/noticia/296470_ESPN|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130115095200/http://espn.estadao.com.br/noticia/296470_ESPN|url-status=dead|archive-date=January 15, 2013|access-date=December 2, 2012|newspaper=ESPN Estadão|date=December 1, 2012|language=pt}} In 2016, they sealed a partnership with Grêmio Osasco Audax, 2016 Campeonato Paulista A1 runners-up, for the 2016 Serie B, which included mixing players from both teams in one squad and playing home games at Audax's stadium in Osasco.{{Cite web|url=http://globoesporte.globo.com/sp/sorocaba/futebol/times/oeste/noticia/2016/05/presidente-do-oeste-anuncia-parceria-com-audax-e-fala-em-elenco-mesclado.html|title=Presidente do Oeste confirma parceria com Audax e fala em elenco mesclado|date=May 16, 2016 |language=pt|access-date=July 15, 2016}}
