About Kilikia FC

FC Kilikia was a professional football club based in Yerevan, Armenia. The club was originally founded in 1992 and was part of the first season of the Armenian football championship after the country gained independence. It initially competed in the Armenian Premier League and played its home matches at the Hrazdan Stadium, one of the largest stadiums in Armenia.

In its early years, Kilikia went through instability, including a merger with FC Malatia and later separation, before being disbanded for a short period. The club was later revived in 1997 and re-entered the Armenian football system. In the following years, it fluctuated between divisions and even replaced other financially struggling clubs in the Premier League. Although it was never a dominant force, it occasionally achieved solid mid-table finishes and qualified for European competition, including the UEFA Intertoto Cup.

FC Kilikia struggled with long-term financial stability and eventually could not sustain participation at the top level. In 2011, the club officially withdrew from the Armenian Premier League due to financial problems and was subsequently dissolved. After a long absence, it later returned in amateur competitions in the 2020s, but it no longer operates as a top-tier professional club.
