The clubs colors (blue, white and red) symbolize, respectively, Associação Atlética da Bahia, Clube Bahiano de Tênis and the State of Bahia. The flag in the club's emblem is that of the state of Bahia. The derby with the great rival Vitória is called the Ba-Vi. The stadium's official name is that of a former state governor.
