Football Club Chikhura Sachkhere, commonly known as Chikhura Sachkhere or simply Chikhura, is a Georgian football club based in Sachkhere. They play in the Erovnuli Liga.

History

The name Chikhura derives from the name of a river in Sachkhere. The club was founded in 1938. During World War II, the club disbanded, but re-formed after it ended. [1] Chikhura has had different names throughout of the history of the club, including: "Spartaki", "Kolmeurne", "Peikari". [1]

Since 2002, Chikhura has been financed by the Georgian businessman Bidzina Ivanishvili. [1]

Their home is the 2,000-seat "Central stadium", where they have played since their establishment but for the Europa League they play at 27,223-seat Mikheil Meskhi Stadium which is located 130 km. from their hometown.

In 2013 the club achieved the greatest success in its history when they played in the Georgian Cup final against Dinamo Tbilisi and lost 3–1 but qualified for the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League 1st qualifying round. This was the first season that Chikhura Sachkhere appeared in European Competition, their first opponent in 2013–14 UEFA Europa League was Liechtenstein's Cup Winners Vaduz.

The next season, Chikhura eliminated Turkish club Bursaspor in the second round of Europa League. [2] This remains one of the most memorable successes in the history of the club.
