History

The club was founded on August 20, 1912, after a misunderstanding of a group of boys from Natacao e Regatas Campista club. They felt depreciated because a request to use a boat to travel at Paraiba River was denied by the club. They then abandoned the practice of rowing and founded a football club at Otto Nogueira's house.

Goytacaz plays its home matches at Ary de Oliveira e Souza stadium, usually known as Arizao, which has a maximum capacity of 15,000 people.
