History
The first field of Padroense F.C. was the "Saibreira" before moving to the "stray field" (what is now High School), to finally go to the Monte da Mina, near the land which today is the Church of the Standard A league.
The clubhouse was originally a small room in the house of Mr. Justino, where he kept all the belongings of the club, then moving to the house of the Tamanqueiros to finally settle in the Rua Nova do Seixo, called the second home of "Mr. Abbot" that belonged to the priest Meão, which coincidences of fate is now the personal residence of the current President Germano Pinho.
