Current season

FK Minija is a semi-professional football club based in Kretinga, Lithuania. The team competes in I Lyga, the second division of Lithuanian football system.

History

After FK Minija Kretinga went bankrupt at the end of 2016 season, the Kretinga football promoters formed a phoenix club at the beginning of 2017. Football Club "Minija" joined II Lyga's Western Zone. In that season team took the third place.

In 2018 the football club was reorganized into Public Organisation "Futbolo klubas Minija". Minija finished the season top of the league, equal on points with FK Babrungas Plungė. When this happens, the teams play a "golden match" to determine the higher position in the table. Minija won the match and were declared the winners of II Lyga Western Zone.

In 2019 the club had successfully promoted to I Lyga,[1] and finished the season in 8th position.
