[edit] History
In 1903, Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro ("São Paulo Railroad Company") employees founded Jundiahy Foot Ball Club. In 1908, due to the lack of time of its members, Jundiahy Foot Ball Club folded. In 1909, supporters, sympathizers and players of the defunct Jundiahy founded Paulista Futebol Clube.
In 2005, the club won the Copa do Brasil, beating Fluminense in the final. In the following year, Paulista competed Copa Libertadores for the first time.

In 1999, with the support of Parmalat, the name of the team was Etti Jundiaí, since Paulista is the name of a Parmalat competitor.
