Shahin Bushehr F.C.

Shahin Lian Shahrdari Bushehr Football Club (Persian: باشگاه فوتبال شاهین شهرداری بوشهر, Bashgah-e Futbal-e Shahin Shiherdari-ye Bushiher) is an Iranian football club based in Bushehr, Iran. They are one of the most historical football clubs in Iran and hold home games at Shahid Mahdavi Stadium.

Shahin F.C. was established in 1942 by Dr Abbas Ekrami, a teacher.[citation needed]

Ekrami founded the club with help of some young students under the motto

اول اخلاق، دوم درس، سوم ورزش
First ethics, second education, third sports.

— Shahin F.C. Motto

Shahin produced many talented players like Parviz Dehdari, Masoud Boroumand, Homayoun Behzadi, Jafar Kashani, Hossein Kalani, Hamid Shirzadegan, and many more that played for Team Melli. These talents made Shahin popular in the 1960s but its very popularity was viewed as a threat by the Iran Football Federation and the Keihan Varzeshi newspaper (Iran's most important sports publication at the time). The conflict between them became worse and on July 9, 1967, two days after Shahin's 3–0 win against Tehranjavan F.C., the Iran Sports Organization declared Shahin F.C. as dissolved. League attendance dropped and other clubs including Pas, Rah Ahan, and Oghab tried to sign Shahin players.

Shahin Bushehr was established in 1950 with the name of Khalije Bushehr.

After years of history and competing in different levels of the Iranian football league system, including a 1994–95 appearance in the top division and several years in the second level, Shahin Bushehr was renamed Shahin Pars Jonoubi Bushehr in 2007 and promoted to IPL in 2009. The club is now owned by Pars Special Economic Energy Zone, based in Asalouyeh, Bushehr Province.
