The team plays in Série D, the fourth tier of the Brazilian football league system, as well as in the Campeonato Mineiro, the top tier of the Minas Gerais state football league.
History
Villa Nova is the second oldest active club of Minas Gerais. The club was founded on 28 June 1908, in Nova Lima, by English factory workers and miners of Morro Velho Mining Inc.
The 1930s were the club's greatest era. Villa Nova won its first state title in 1932 and won the first three championships in the professional era, in 1933, 1934 and 1935. The yellow star in the club's logo allude to these titles.
Villa won the Campeonato Mineiro again in 1951, defeating Atlético Mineiro in the finals at Independência. Martim Francisco, coach of the club in 1951, was pointed out as the inventor of 4-2-4 in the book 'Inverting The Pyramid' by Jonathan Wilson, which chronicles the evolution of football tactics.
In 1971, Villa Nova won the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B first edition, after beating Remo in the final. The green star in their logo symbolizes this national title.
The team plays its home matches at the Estádio Castor Cifuentes, a venue that reflects the club's deep-rooted connection to the local community. Villa Nova AC has a reputation for nurturing young talent and has produced several players who have gone on to achieve success in both domestic and international football.
Throughout its history, Villa Nova has experienced periods of success, including notable performances in the Campeonato Mineiro, where they have claimed multiple state championships. The club's commitment to excellence on and off the pitch is evident in its efforts to promote sportsmanship, community engagement, and youth development.
With a legacy that spans over a century, Villa Nova AC continues to be a symbol of pride for its supporters, embodying the spirit of Brazilian football and the vibrant culture of Minas Gerais. Whether competing in local derbies or national tournaments, Villa Nova remains a team to watch, with aspirations to reclaim its place among Brazil's football elite.
