Brazilian association football club based in São Luís, Maranhão, Brazil
Sampaio Corrêa Futebol Clube, better known simply as Sampaio Corrêa or just Sampaio, was founded on 25 March 1923 by a group of young workers practicing amateur football on São Pantaleão Street, in the Centro neighborhood of São Luís, which gave rise to the nickname “Tricolor of Saint Pantaleon”. The club's name and colors were inspired by the Sampaio Corrêa II Hydroplane, which landed in the capital of Maranhão in December 1922.
