About FC Chikhura Sachkhere

FC Chikhura Sachkhere is a Georgian football club based in the town of Sachkhere. Founded in 1938, the club spent much of its early history in lower divisions and experienced several periods of inactivity and reformation. For decades it remained a modest regional team before gradually rising into the national league system after Georgia’s independence.

The club’s most successful period came in the 2010s, when it established itself as a competitive top-flight side. Chikhura reached its first major milestone in 2013 by playing in the Georgian Cup final, which also earned it qualification for European competitions. It later achieved one of its most notable international results by defeating stronger opponents in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers, gaining recognition for its disciplined and hardworking style.

Domestically, Chikhura won the Georgian Cup in 2017 and the Super Cup in 2013, marking the peak of its achievements. The club also came close to winning the national league in 2016, finishing near the top but falling short in the decisive stages. In recent years, however, it has faced financial and sporting difficulties, resulting in relegations to lower divisions, though it remains part of the Georgian football structure.
