Clube Desportivo de Mafra is a Portuguese association football club, currently playing in the Liga Portugal 2, the second tier of the Portuguese football league system. They are based in the town of Mafra and own Campo Doutor Mário Silveira stadium, but the games are played in Estádio Municipal de Mafra. Founded in 1965, the club predominantly played within Portugal's regional leagues where they gradually worked their way up until they won the Lisbon Football Association Division 1 title in the 1991–92 league season and promotion to the national leagues.

History
Clube Desportivo Mafra was founded on 24 May 1965. Initially, in 1940, the club was established under its original colors but was re-founded in 1965. The club began its football activities in 1967. In the 1970–71 season, the club won the third division title of the Lisbon Football Association. Five seasons later, they were crowned champions of the second division of the same association.

In the 1991–92 season, the club secured the first division title of the Lisbon Football Association, allowing them to join the national championships for the first time in the 1992–93 season. During its first two seasons in the Terceira Divisão (the fourth tier), the club finished tenth before topping its group in the 1994–95 season. However, the club spent only one season in the Segunda Divisão B before being relegated back to the Tercera Divisão. The following season, they were relegated again to the first division of the Lisbon Football Association.

In the 1997–98 season, Mafra finished second and returned to the Tercera Divisão, where they remained for four seasons. In the 2001–02 season, Mafra topped its group, earning promotion back to the Segunda Divisão B. The club stayed at this level for 14 seasons before winning the northern promotion group to the Segunda Liga in the 2014–15 season. This was achieved by defeating Famalicão, the winner of the other promotion group, with a 1–1 draw followed by a 4–3 victory in the ensuing penalty shootout.
