History

Marília was founded on 12 April 1942, as Esporte Clube Comercial. The club name was very unpopular, and on 11 July 1947, a General Assembly changed the name of the club to Marília Atlético Clube. On 19 April 1954, Marília took a leave of its official football activities. On 7 July 1969, Marília returned to its football activities.
