History

On June 5, 1999, [http://www.futebolpr.com.br/adap/saibamais/a_ficha.html FutebolPR (club's card)] ] the club was founded by the Adilson and Avanilton Batista Prado brothers. The club was originally from Jacarezinho.

In January, 2002, [ [http://www.adap.com.br/site/?x=clube/apresentacao ADAP's official website (site's presentation page)] ] ADAP moved to Campo Mourão city, after the initiative of the city's mayor, Tauilio Tezelli. In that year, the club was Campeonato Paranaense Série A-2 ("Campeonato Paranaense Third Division") runner-up. ADAP was defeated by Dois Vizinhos in the final.

In 2003, due to Ponta Grossa's bad financial condition, their berth in the Campeonato Paranaense was sold to ADAP. ADAP disputed the competition representing Ponta Grossa, and finished in the 13th position in the competition. [ [http://paginas.terra.com.br/esporte/rsssfbrasil/tables/pr2003.htm 2003 Campeonato Paranaense at RSSSF] ] . ADAP was christened Adap-Ponta Grossa in the competition.

In 2005, ADAP was again eliminated in the Campeonato Paranaense second stage, which was the quarterfinals. The club was eliminated by Iraty in a penalty shootout. [ [http://paginas.terra.com.br/esporte/rsssfbrasil/tables/pr2005.htm 2005 Campeonato Paranaense at RSSSF] ]
