Gremio Lusitano is an amateur soccer team from Ludlow, Massachusetts.

Founded in 1922 in a garage on Franklin Street,[1] the team had competed for several seasons during the 1930s in the New England Division of the American Soccer League,[2] but for most of its existence it has been an amateur or semi-professional club. John Palhete was the team's first coach[3] and they play their home games in Lusitano Stadium, which is owned by the club.
