Some portuguese sport flags are described by Adolf Durán in “Portugal:
Banderas Corporativas (II)” Banderas 43 (1992.06): 26-27
[drn92], not without error.
António Martins, 26 Jul 1999
These flags can be seen at the clubs’ facilities, where competitions are
being held and flown by adepts in many other locations throughout the country
(and beyond it — seems that portuguese emmigrant abroad, some 3 or 4 million,
may not know who’s the President of Portugal, but they sure know who’s on the
“11” of their favourite soccer team…)
António Martins, 26 Jul 1999
Sport club’s emblems in Portugal usually resemble partially or
completely the arms of the places where they come from. An example
of these is Rio Ave
(Vila do Conde).
Jorge Candeias, 04 Mar 1999
But there are much worse examples, some even hard to distinguish from
the respective municipal flag, like Grupo
Desportivo de Lagoa.
António Martins, 06 Mar 1999
This is also a common phenomenon: the permanence in the club’s
emblems of obsolete municipal coats of arms of which the most evident is
that of Futebol Clube do Porto.
Jorge Candeias, 04 Mar 1999
Concerning the flag the flag of Boavista
(for example), and considering its recent victory, I would have expected
some charge added to highlight it — a golden star or something like
this.

That’s not in our tradition. Probably because the “usual
suspects” have some tens of titles and it would clutter their flags
and symbols, or probably because nobody thought of that, the fact is
that nobody adds stars or other design elements to their symbols when
winning titles around here…
Jorge Candeias, 25 Oct 2001
In the white background is a Christ Knights’ Order cross with the
national arms in center and two crossed hockey-sticks. Above the emblem
semicircular legend that says: «Federação Portuguesa de
Patinagem».
Jaume Ollé and Jorge Candeias, 15 Jun 1999
The flag is blue with the logo in yellow. The logo consists of a
picture of a horse’s head looking back, inside a horseshoe-shaped
bordure, where the words FEDERAÇÃO EQUESTRE
PORTUGUESA are displayed.
Jorge Candeias, 28 Aug 2003
The Federação Equestre Portuguesa (Portuguese
Equestrian Federation) is the body that rules over equestrian sport,
olympic or not, in Portugal. Founded in 1927, it is a member of the
International Equestrian Federation.
Equestrian sport, although not very popular in Portugal (it’s a
bit of an aristocratic pass-time, or at least that’s its image),
has brought to the country some of its best sporting titles ever, including
several olympic medals of all three metals.
In the competitions organized or sponsored by the FEP, its
flag is a common sighting.
Jorge Candeias, 28 Aug 2003
I had this logo in store since 2002, waiting to know the flag. Last weekend
in Oporto I finally saw it hoisted at the (regional) HQ of the Portuguese
Volleyball Federation: as expected, it is a white flag with the logo on it
- complete with full name, of course.
The logo is blue, consisting of the letters "FPV", set in a highly
stylized face, the ascending branch of "V" simulating a volleyball net and
above it a disc filled with a simplified version of the portuguese
national flag (eq. div and yellow disc for emblem).

The newspaper "Região Sul" published in 26 November 2003 a piece about
the creation of an official House of Golf in the Algarve that was
illustrated by a photo showing the two gentlemen that signed the
protocol and three flags. These are:
In the left we've got the flag of the European Golfing Federation
In the centre, we have the portuguese national flag.
In the right, almost hidden outside the picture, there's a flag that can
be identified through the similarity of the visible part of its charge
and the emblem that is hanging in the wall, which belongs to the FPG,
Federação Portuguesa de Golfe, or Portuguese Golfing Federation.
It's a white flag (what a surprise!) with the FPG emblem centred. The
emblem consists of the portuguese shield with stylized towers in place
of the castles, surrounded by the name of the federation in golden caps
and crowned by two crossed golf clubs, also golden.
