CRESSPOM, an abbreviation from its full official name Clube Recreativo e Esportivo de Sub-Tenentes e Sargentos da Polícia Militar do Distrito Federal (Recreational and Sports Club of Sub-Officers and Sergeants of the Military Police of the Federal District in English), is a Brazilian sporting and social association based in Brasília, in the Federal District.

The club is mainly known for its women's football team, which has represented the Federal District several times in the Brazilian Women's Cup, being one of the clubs with the most participations in the competition's history. Its best performance came in 2016, when it reached the semifinals, defeating Audax/Corinthians at home, but losing on aggregate score.[1][2]

It competed in the Women's Brasileirão A-2 three times: 2017, 2019 and 2021, with the latter being its best campaign, reaching the semifinals[3], eliminating Ceará[4]. Even though it lost to Atlético Mineiro[5], the club secured a spot to compete for the first time in the Women's Brasileirão A-1 in 2022.[6]
