FC Samtskhe Akhaltsikhe
football club
FC Samtskhe (Georgian: საფეხბურთო კლუბი სამცხე) is a Georgian association football club based in Akhaltsikhe. Following the 2025 season, they were promoted to Liga 4, the fourth tier of Georgian football.
The club is governed by the local municipality.
History
Samtskhe was established in 2019 on the basis of Akhaltsikhe Sport School. The next year they joined Regionuli Liga as the second team of the city along with Meskheti.
Due to COVID and relevant restrictions related to it the season consisted of 13 games only. The debutants prevailed in their very first game over Tori and overall performed well enough not only to retain their place in the league, but also to finish in the top five, four points short of the promotion spot.
In March 2021, the team eliminated Liga 4 side Sulori from the national cup. In the regular season the start was dodgy with the initial 15 winless games, although the club significantly improved in the autumn.
In 2024, Samtskhe seemed poised for another promotion attempt.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “FC Samtskhe Akhaltsikhe” as football club. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as football club. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q109975837. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2025, 2019, 2021 and 2024.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
