Ponta Grossa Esporte Clube, commonly known as Ponta Grossa, was a Brazilian football club based in Ponta Grossa, Paraná state. They competed in the Série C twice.
History
The club was founded on June 30, 1994,[1] by a former president of another Ponta Grossa club, Operário Ferroviário Esporte Clube. They competed in the Série C in 1997, when they were eliminated in the Second Stage,[2] and 2002 in the First Stage of the competition.[3] Due to financial problems, in 2003 the club sold its spot in the Campeonato Paranaense to ADAP, competing in that season's competition as ADAP/Ponta Grossa.
Ponta Grossa EC went inactive in the same year and in April 24, 2020, the club finally went extinct after their owner ended its CNPJ by voluntary liquidation.[4]
