History
The club was founded on August 13, 1933, as Esporte Clube São José, after Futebol Clube and Klaxon merged.[2] The club merged in 1945 with Associação Esportiva São José to form São José Esporte Clube.[2]
On March 8, 1964, São José became a professional club.
In December, 1976, due to a financial crisis, the club changed its name to São José Esporte Clube, with the purpose of not paying its debts. The club also changed its colors, which were black and white, to the current blue, yellow and white ones, and changed its logo.
In 1989, the club was runner-up of Campeonato Paulista, after beating Corinthians in the semifinals, and losing to São Paulo in the final,[2] and runner-up of Campeonato Brasileiro Second Division, losing to Bragantino in the final, but being promoted to the following year's first division.
In 1996, São José won the Copa Vale after defeating Aparecida in the final.
In 2003, the club was renamed to Esporte São José, but in 2005, the club returned to its previous name, São José Esporte Clube.[3] In 2006, São José moved back to Campeonato Paulista A-2.
Years in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A:

Mascot
The Águia (Eagle) became the official mascot of São José in 1978, two years after São José changed their team colors. "Azulão do Vale" (Big Blue of the Valley) was the team's nickname before that, but they changed it to "Águia do Vale" when Águia became the team's mascot. Águia was chosen as the club mascot as eagles are driven animals and will fight to the end even against the odds.

The biggest rival of São José is Taubaté. The derby between the two clubs is known as O Clássico do Vale do Paraíba (The Paraíba Valley Classic).
The team that São José played most against is Santo André.
