Football Club Illichivets Mariupol (Template:Lang-uk [ilʲi't͡ʃivɛt͡sʲ mɐri'upolʲ], Russian: Футбо́льный клуб «Ильичё́вец» Мариу́поль [ɪlʲɪˈtɕɵvʲɪts mərʲɪˈupəlʲ]) is a Ukrainian professional football club based in Mariupol.

The club is named after the Illich Steel and Iron Works in Mariupol.

Quick overview

Football Club Illichivets Mariupol was created in 1960 based on a former two teams of physical culture FC Avanhard Zhdanov and FC Shakhtar Rutchenkove. The new team of masters Azovstal Zhdanov sponsored by the local Azovstal Factory applied to Soviet competitions for teams of masters in Class B (at that time the second division).

FC Metalurh Mariupol changed its name to Illichivets during the winter break of the 2002–2003 season. Before that, Azovets Mariupol had changed its name to Metalurh during the winter break of the 1995–1996 season reestablishing itself as a Footaball Club. The team, Azovets, was established in 1960 after the reformation of the Avanhard Zhdanov team (now Mariupol) when another team, Shakhtar Rutchenkove was incorporated. The Avanhard, in its turn, had been established in 1936.

Illichivets were relegated to Ukrainian First League in the 2006–07 season after finishing 15th (out of 16). However, they returned to the Ukrainian Premier League the following season after finishing as champions in the 2007–08 Ukrainian First League.
