Oliveira do Hospital, a club with a proud local history, has officially secured its spot in the 2025/26 Campeonato de Portugal. This news brings a welcome calm after months of uncertainty. The club recently dropped down from Liga 3, and for a time, even having a senior team seemed unsure.
The real battle wasn’t on the pitch. It was in the club offices. A long period of leadership troubles put everything at risk. This boardroom deadlock hung heavy over the team, leaving fans wondering about their future.
But last week, a solution emerged. Hélder Brito was elected as the new president. His arrival marked a turning point, clearing the path forward for the club.
The club shared the good news on its social media channels. They confirmed their participation in the country’s fourth-tier league. More details about the upcoming season will be shared very soon, promising a fresh start. This beloved team, tied to the Coimbra Football Association, can now look ahead.
