Avaí Futebol Clube is a Brazilian football team from Florianópolis in Santa Catarina, founded on September 1, 1923. Their home stadium is Estádio Aderbal Ramos da Silva, also known as Ressacada, with a capacity of 17,800. ^{They play in blue and white shirts, shorts and socks. Their best known supporter is tennis player Gustavo Kuerten.}

The club was founded after a businessman called Amadeu Horn gave football kits to a group of boys. The boys played a match against a team called Humaitá, and won. On September 1, 1923, at Amadeu Horn’s house, the club was founded, known as Avahy Football Club at the time. The team was named Avahy after the Battle of Avahy, in the Paraguayan War. In the following year, it became the first Santa Catarina State Championship champion.

Avaí has played in the Brazilian First Division (“Série A”) six times: 1974, 1976, 1977, 1979, 2009 and 2010. In 1998, they won their only national title, the Brazilian Third Division (“Série C”). From 1999, to 2008, they played in the Série B with their best campaigns in 2001, 2004 (when Avaí reached the Final Four, but could not be promoted to the First Division because only the two best placed teams were promoted).

In 2008 they finished 3rd in the championship and were promoted to the First Division for the first time in 29 years. In its first year playing in Série A, Avaí finished in 6th place, thus qualifying for the Copa Sudamericana. Avaí won the most Santa Catarina State Championship titles in the 20th Century (13), and is currently the all time record state champions (16), just ahead of cross-bridge rivals Figueirense (15).
