History and achievements
Antalyaspor is a Turkish football club based in Antalya. The club was founded in 1966 after unification of three city teams into a single professional team. The club’s name is a merge of ‘Antalya’ and ‘spor’, the latter meaning ‘sports’ in Turkish. So letters ‘A’ and ‘S’ can be found at the club’s emblem.
Initially the team played in lower divisions of the Turkish championship. Eventually Antalyaspor made it to the Super Lig but failed to save a spot there. So the club history is full of ups and downs. In 1996 and 1997 the team played in the UEFA Intertoto Cup and next year they finished in the 6th place of the Turkish Super Lig – Antalyaspor’s best result in the national championship at that moment. 2000 was also a successful year for the team as Antalyaspor made it to the Turkish Cup final where they failed to beat Galatasaray. Having finished second in the championship, the club got a bye to the UEFA Cup. After the successful years Antalyaspor was relegated from the top division but made it back in 2008.
Akdeniz University Stadium is the club’s home arena with the capacity of about 7,000 seats.
