History

The Grupo Desportivo da Nocal (GD Nocal) team was founded in 1963 as a team of workers at the Nocal brewery, during the period of the Portuguese colonial administration. In 2008, the brewery separated from GD Nocal, when the team changed its name to Grupo Desportivo da Expresso.

For a short period of time it adopted the name "Gira Jovem de Cazenga", when again it was called Expresso Fagec again. For sponsorship reasons it is also known as "Fagec F.C."
