history
The club was founded in Londrina on April 5, 1956 , when a few amateur players were attending a game between Nacional Rolândia and CR Vasco da Gama . They decided that they didn't necessarily have to go to the Nacional games to see football. Instead, they decided to found their own club, the Londrina Futebol e Regatas . This merged with the Paraná EC in 1969 , creating the Londrina Esporte Clube . In the meantime, the club colors were red and white, but they were changed back to blue and white by President Carlos Antônio Franchello during his second term in 1972. One of the club's greatest successes is the three-time success at the Campeonato Paranaense in 1962, 1981, 1992 and 2014.
