The parish of Aves, located in Santo Tirso, will change its name 71 years after the last change. The stadium of this parish is the home of AVS SAD, a football club that plays in Portuguese professional leagues.
The name change proposal was approved unanimously and by acclamation, demonstrating the existing consensus in the local community about this change. The name change process occurs after several decades since the last designation.
The change has significant sporting relevance, as AVS SAD uses the name and location of the parish of Aves in its identity, and any change could affect the way the club and the region are identified in the national football context.
