100 km northwest of Curitiba, to the capital, to create a credible force against the then prevailing teams of the Coritiba Foot Ball Club and the Internacional Futebol Clube.

The new club won the championship of the new joint league of Paraná, the Associação Sportiva Paranaense, of 1917, leaving the title holders Coritiba behind on second place.

In 1918 the club finished on the fifth place amongst six participants and in February 1919, before start of the new championship, the merger was undone.

The América FBC participated in the state championship until 1922 and merged before the 1924 competition with Internacional to form today's Clube Atlético Paranaense.

The Paraná SC rejoined the state championship in 1920 and ceased operations during the 1926 competition and dissolved itself.
