This study aimed to describe the emergence and consolidation of José do Patrocínio Football League, as well as to contest the League’s role post-abolition period for the black Pelotas community. The study is a historical research, and the empirical corpus consisted of the analysis of city’s daily and weekly newspapers during the League's existence (1919–1936). It was concluded that the League served as an alternative to the Pelotense Football League, which, at that time, was characterized by elitist and racist parameters. Therefore, José do Patrocínio Football League was a locus for including workers and Afro-descendant footballers and represented a symbol of resistance to racial prejudice in Pelotas city.
