Sporting Clube da Covilhã, commonly known as just Sporting da Covilhã, is Portuguese football club from the city of Covilhã that plays in the third-tier Liga Portugal 3. The club was founded on 2 June 1923 and became the branch number 8 of Sporting Clube de Portugal (Sporting CP).[1] Their nickname is the Leões da Serra, meaning "Lions of the Mountain Range," due to Covilhã's location in the Serra de Estrela, the highest mountains in Portugal.
Their home ground is Estádio Municipal José dos Santos Pinto, located at approximately 900 m of altitude. However, SCC play sometimes at a more recent Complexo Desportivo da Covilhã in Covilhã, which holds a capacity of 3,000 spectators. Their current chairman is Marco Peba and current manager is Francisco Chaló. They have won five Second Division in 1948, 1969, 1987 (second-tier), 2002, and 2005 (third-tier).
De verde e branco, Um dia te embriagaram; De verde engalanaram, Os teus pés. O branco escorreu-te, Das feições, Onde moras, E onde mostras o que és! e Entre os maiores Te sentes piqueno, Mas és na Beira Rico em tradições, Agarra que te vem De seres leão, Já tem feito tremer Os aldeões!
Pelos anos contados, És velhinho, Mas continuas sempre A ser um jovenzinho; D`esperança Traçaram teu carinho, Força e coragem O que te moem, O ar que te embriaga Puro e leve, Te inspira e te dá fecundidade? Que seja lema teu, Por toda a vila A grandeza, leite Gresso, A humidade
A. ^A Despite finishing in a relegation position, the club was not relegated due to União de Leiria of the Primeira Liga being relegated to the non-professional tiers of Portugal due to there financial difficulties suffered during the 2011–12 Primeira Liga season.
