Club colors and nickname


The club is affectionately known as "Carrossel da Baixada" (Baixada's Carrousel), in reference to the team color (orange), similar to the color of the Netherlands' 1974 World Cup team (known as the Dutch Carrousel).[9] The color adopted by the club was orange, in honor to the period (in the 1930s) when Nova Iguaçu city was one of the biggest orange exporters in the world (the fruit still is one of the city symbols).[1]
