history

The club was founded in 1982 by Newton de Castro Ribeiro, a businessman, lawyer, and ex- America Mineiro player . His ambition with this project was to establish an equivalent counterweight in women's football to the more well-known EC Radar from Rio de Janeiro . He was able to win over the Palmeiras legend César Maluco as a coach for his squad recruited with young talents . In the competition for the first state championship for women of São Paulo in 1983, so named by the city administration , the team reached the final, but was subject to a players' association of daughters of the local military police. As a consequence, Ribeiro strengthened his team with players from the winning team. After a 5-0 defeat in the prestigious duel against Radar, which was broadcast nationwide by Rede Bandeirantes on television, he quickly recruited some players such as Mariléia dos Santos (aka "Michael Jackson") from the rival .

Despite his dedication to women's football, Newton Ribeiro had not hidden his aversion to homosexuality . After learning about the lesbian relationship between two of his players, he ended the project in 1984. Most of the Ísis players then joined CA Juventus or had returned to Radar.
