SC Mika
Armenia · Founded: 1998
FC Mika is a professional football club based in Yerevan, Armenia. It was founded in 1998 as Mika-Kasakh Ashtarak in the town of Ashtarak and was established by the Mika Corporation LLC owned by Armenian-Russian businessman Mikhail Baghdasarov. The club later moved to Yerevan in 2007, where it became more closely associated with its own stadium and the capital’s football infrastructure.
The club achieved early success in Armenian football, winning its first major trophy—the Armenian Cup—in 2000. During the 2000s, FC Mika became one of the competitive sides in the Armenian Premier League and regularly fought for domestic cups, adding multiple Armenian Cup titles and Supercups to its collection. Its most successful period was the mid-to-late 2000s and early 2010s, when it was consistently among the stronger teams in the league.
However, FC Mika faced financial and organizational difficulties, and by the end of the 2015–16 season the club withdrew from professional football. It later returned in 2022, re-entering the Armenian First League and continuing to compete at a lower level. Today, FC Mika is seen as a club with a history of domestic success but also periods of instability and rebuilding.
