The club currently play their home games at the Estádio do Leça FC, which holds a capacity of 12,000 spectators.

Founded in 1912, Leca participated in the Portuguese championships, held in cup format, from the 1927–28 to 1931–32 season, reaching the quarter-finals in 1928–29.

In the upcoming years, the club was affected by financial problems that cut some of the desire of wanting the team back to the top.

Since then, they've been dubbed as strong candidates to promotion but never confirmed the expectations, finishing in mid-table and surprisingly sometimes near the bottom of the table.
