Storia
Sporting Clube de Braga B, commonly known as Sporting de Braga B or just Braga B, is a Portuguese football team. It is the reserve team of S.C. Braga. Reserve teams in Portugal play in the same league system as the senior team, rather than in a reserve team league. However, they cannot play in the same division as their senior team, therefore Braga B is ineligible for promotion to the Primeira Liga and also cannot play in the Taça de Portugal and Taça da Liga.
SC Braga had a B team until the 2005–06 season where it played in the Portuguese Second Division. Prior to the end of the 2005–06 season, it was announced that Braga B would fold from the Portuguese league system along with the B teams of Benfica, Porto and Sporting. The club refounded itself in the 2012–13 season, when a new set of rules regarding B teams was introduced in Portuguese football system. For 2012–13 season, another five B Teams, alongside Braga B, where refounded and established themselves in Segunda Liga.
SC Braga B plays its home games at the new 2,500-capacity Estádio Amélia Morais, which opened in 2025. This change resulted in the abandonment of the old and outdated Estádio Primeiro de Maio, where it had played until then, after inheriting it from the main team, which abandoned it in 2003 following the construction of the Estádio Municipal de Braga.
