The Bahiaña League is the Bahia state football championship, in which all the strongest clubs in the state participate.

History

The Bajano League is held under the auspices of the FBF - Bajano Football Federation ( port.-Brazil. Federação Bahiana de Futebol ), founded in 1913. According to the CBF rating, Liga Bajano currently ranks 7th in strength in Brazil.

The Bahia State Championship was established on November 15, 1904. This is one of the oldest state championships in all of Brazil (only the Paulista League is older). The founders of the League were the São Paulo Club, the Internationale de Cricket Club, the Victoria Sports Club (now Vitoria) and the Bahiyano Sports Club.

Over the more than 100-year history of championships in the state, two distinct club leaders stood out - Bahia and Vitoria. At the same time, Bahia was a co-founder of the Club of Thirteen , the organization of the most popular teams in Brazil, won the first all-Brazilian tournament - the Brazil Cup in 1959 , and also became the champion of Brazil .

In 2010, the state championship is held on a multi-stage system. At the first stage, 12 clubs are divided into two groups in which two-round tournaments are held. The four best clubs from each group go to the second stage. The worst four teams play in the "death tournament" for two places in the top division for next year. The eight best ones are again divided into two groups (which are now called group 3 and group 4 ), four teams each. Once again, a two-round tournament is played and the two best each go to the semifinals of the championship. The first teams of the groups play with the second. The winners of the semifinals will play the title of state champion. At both stages of the playoffs, teams play two matches - at home and away.

↑ Atletico Football Club ( Brazilian port. Atlético Futebol Clube ) was founded on May 7, 1912 by a former player of the Santos Dumont club, and since there were few football teams in the state, he was immediately accepted into the League. He won the championship of 1912, and in 1913 did not begin to enter the new League and ceased to exist.
↑ International ( port.-Brazil. Sport Club Internacional (Bahia) ) took second place in the reformed championship of 1913 and won the 1914 tournament. The team spent the last worthy season in 1916 , taking third place.

↑ Botafogo Sports Club ( Brazilian port. Botafogo Sport Club ) is one of the most successful Bahia clubs of the 1920s and 1930s. 7-time state champion. Also, the team took the 2nd place 7 times (1918, 1929, 1932, 1943, 1954, 1965, 1977). The club’s last “success” was second in the 1984 State Championship Division 2. In 1990, it was decided to terminate the functioning of a professional team. However, the club continues to perform at the children's and youth level, a sports school is functioning.
↑ Guarani Sports Association ( Brazilian port. Associação Desportiva Guarany ) was founded on January 12, 1920 . Since 1942, he played in the High League of the state championship. He became the champion of Bahia in 1946 . In the late 1960s, flew out of the elite and subsequently ceased to exist.
↑ Ipiranga ( Brazilian port. Esporte Clube Ypiranga ) is a fully functioning football club, although the team has not won the state championship for 6 decades. In recent years, Ipiranga has been in the 2nd division of the Bahia State Championship.
↑ In 1999, one of the most controversial state championship rallies took place. “Bahia” and “Vitoria” won one stage of the tournament (each time playing in the finals with each other) and had to fight in the super final for the final title. Even the first match was played, in which Bahia was stronger than 2-0. But the second match was never played because of conflicts over the venue of the game. In 2002, the FBF ruled that the 1999 state title was not played at all. However, in 2005 she awarded the title to both clubs.
↑ Palmeiras Nordeste ( port.-Brazil. Palmeiras Nordeste Futebol Ltda. ), Founded in 2000 , now is called "Feyrensi" ( port.-Brazil. Feirense Futebol Clube )
↑ The clubs involved in the Northeast Cup did not participate in the official state championship. Therefore, later these teams held their Super Championship, similar to the one that was held in Sao Paulo that year. This title is equivalent to the title of state champion.
