History

Perilima's old badge

On September 1992, Pedro Ribeiro Lima founded a club named after his initials PEdro RIbeiro LIMA (Perilima). The club was founded as a factory team in a sorda candy factory owned by him.[3]

Six years after, in 1998, the club entered its first professional championship. At the time, the team was formed by the factory workers.[4] 'Seu Pedro' was both coach and player, they finished as runners-up and were promoted to Paraíba State Championship First Division, in which they currently play.[5]

During a stage of financial hardship, the club was helped by members of the Orkut social network, who crowdfunded a campaign to alleviate its finances.[6] This campaign effectively acted as a sponsorship deal, and the community's identification number was added to the uniform's shirt sleeves.[7]
