Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈklubi dʒi ʁeˈɡataʒ du flaˈmẽɡu]; English: Flamengo Rowing Club), more commonly referred to as simply Flamengo, is a Brazilian sports club based in Rio de Janeiro, in the neighborhood of Gávea, best known for their professional football team.
The club was first established in 1895 specifically as a rowing club and did not play their first official football match until 1912.
Flamengo's traditional uniform features red and black striped shirts with white shorts, and red and black striped socks.
Flamengo has typically played their home matches in the Maracanã, the national stadium of Brazil, since its completion in 1950, with some exceptions in recent years.
Since 1969, the vulture (Portuguese: urubu) has been the most recognized mascot of Flamengo.
