History

On December 19, 1989, Paraná Clube was founded after Esporte Clube Pinheiros, three times winner of the state championship (1967 as Savóia FC Água Verde, 1984, 1987), and Colorado Esporte Clube, one state championship (1980), fused. Rubens Minelli was hired as the club's first manager,cite book | first = | last = | title = Enciclopédia do Futebol Brasileiro Lance Volume 1 | publisher = Aretê Editorial S/A | location = Rio de Janeiro | year = 2001 | pages = pp. 220–221| id = ISBN 8588651017] and Emerson de Andrade was chosen as the director of football.cite web | title = História - Primeira equipe | url=http://www.paranaclube.com.br/historia_equipe.php | accessdate = 2008-06-07 | publisher=Paraná Clube official website | language=Portuguese ]

The club's first match was played on February 4, 1990, when Coritiba beat Paraná 1-0 at Estádio Couto Pereira.cite web | title = Equilíbrio marca confronto entre Coritiba e Paraná | url=http://esporte.uol.com.br/futebol/ultimas/2008/04/11/ult59u152987.jhtm | accessdate = 2008-06-07 | publisher=UOL Esportes | language=Portuguese ]

In 1991, two years after the club's foundation, Paraná won its first state championship. Later, Paraná would win five state championships in a row, from 1993 to 1997.cite web | title = Paraná State - List of Champions | url=http://paginas.terra.com.br/esporte/rsssfbrasil/tables/prcamp.htm | accessdate = 2008-06-07 | publisher=RSSSF Brasil ]

In 1992, the club won the Campeonato Brasileiro Second Division, gaining the right to compete in the following year's first division.cite web | title = Brazil 1992 Championship - Second Level (Divisão Classificatória) | url=http://paginas.terra.com.br/esporte/rsssfbrasil/tables/br1992l2.htm | accessdate = 2008-06-07 | publisher=RSSSF Brasil | language=Portuguese ] After 8 years, Paraná Clube won another national championship. In 2000, Paraná beats Associação Desportiva São Caetano down and celebrated the title of the Yellow Module of João Havelange Cup. This cup replaced the Campeonato Brasileiro (all levels), because it was suspended by Brazilian Justice.cite web | title = Brazil 2000 Championship - Copa João Havelange | url=http://paginas.terra.com.br/esporte/rsssfbrasil/tables/br2000.htm | accessdate = 2008-06-07 | publisher=RSSSF Brasil ]

In 2003, Paraná Clube and L.A. Sports, which is a sporting marketing company, started a partnership. The partnership's purpose was to help Paraná Clube keep its youth academy. Another purpose of the partnership was to help Paraná Clube sign new players. In 2005, Paraná Clube created an investment fund to replace L.A. Sports, and, because of this, the partnership was not renewed. [http://esportes.terra.com.br/futebol/brasileiro2005/interna/0,,OI766392-EI4847,00.html Terra Esportes] ]
