FC Spartak Ivano-Frankivsk



FC Spartak Ivano-Frankivsk was a Ukrainian football team based in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, Ukraine, the unofficial capital of the Prykarpattia region.

History
The club was founded in 1940 after the Soviet occupation of the Eastern Poland during the World War II. All previous local sports clubs were liquidated and replaced with "proletarian".

In 1956 the club gained promotion to the Soviet Class B (second tier) by winning a play-off match-up against SKCF Sevastopol in 1955. Since that time, Ivano-Frankivsk had at least one club in football competitions among teams of masters until dissolution of the Soviet Union.

In 1981 until 2003 the club competed under the name FC Prykarpattia Ivano-Frankivsk and in 1989 (the Perestroika epoch) was converted from team of masters to professional club by "western standards". In 1981 – 1989 the team of masters belonged to the local Soviet scientific and defense manufacturer Positron.

In 1992 Prykarpattia Ivano-Frankivsk was admitted to the first Ukrainian Premier League, after being initially chosen to participate for being a runner-up from 1st Zone of the Soviet Second League B in 1991. After being demoted following their first season, the club returned to the Ukrainian Premier League in 1994 and remained there for six seasons.

In 2003 the club managed to preserve its place in the Ukrainian First League only with the help of LUKOR Kalush (FC Kalush) that was financed by the Russian Lukoil and coincidentally merged with Ivano-Frankivsk club after winning the Second League and obtaining promotion to the First League. Upon merging of two clubs, the Ivano-Frankivsk team was renamed to Spartak as a "People Football Club", while Kalush team became Prykarpattia-2.

After the 2007 season Spartak was finally relegated to the Second League, with no money. The club folded right before the start of the next season. Following liquidation of its senior, the club continues to field its junior squads in competitions of Ukrainian Youth League.

Prykarpattia Ivano-Frankivsk's best achievement in the Ukrainian Premier League was eleventh place (twice, in 1994–95 and 1995–96).

The team's colours were red shirts and white shorts.
