Delay due to the eruption

The league was delayed when Pico do Fogo erupted, it would resume on 14 December and matches were rescheduled from November 22. In late November, volcanic clouds hovered the north of the island, at the end of the month especially Patim, Salto and Achada Furna where the clubs are based and they could not train in its fields and a bit of the area around Cova Figueira, it headed north, in early December, it was hovered south again, it was not far from the island capital and its matches could not play, it hovered over Mosteiros' stadium. The league resumed on 14 December with the match Spartak against Académica do Fogo, when the volcano was less active.[7] Some of the breaks lasting two or three weeks in 2015 due to the regional cup were removed and many of its rounds were rescheduled. the Fogo Regional Cup for the 2015 season was probably cancelled. The National Championships in May were not cancelled.

Another delay

The match between Académica do Fogo and Cutelinho which was for January 11 was postponed due to the sinking of the Vicente ferry on 8 January 2015 with the loss of 15 people, one of them, a player of Académica do Fogo. The match was rescheduled to January 13.
