FC Borysfen Boryspil is a formerly professional Ukrainian football club from Boryspil, Ukraine. It was founded in February 1993.[1] The club was re-founded in 2013 after bankruptcy in 2007, joining the local amateur league with a view to return to professional football.
Overview
According to football chronicle writer Yuriy Lander who published his book "Football in Ukraine", FC Borysfen Boryspil was promoted in 1993 instead of FC Nyva-Borysfen Myronivka after the 1992-93 Ukrainian Third League.[2] Many players who played for Nyva became players of Nyva-Borysfen and later FC Boryspil. In 1994 after the winter break, Nyva-Borysfen was simply renamed into FC Boryspil, while another team from village of Karapyshi, Myronivka Raion moved to the raion seat also under the name of Nyva. Later the new Nyva was renamed into Nyva-Kosmos. Many football statisticians such Olexiy Kobyzev who bases his facts on the handbook of Yuri Lander "Football in Ukraine" do not mention about that technical detail.
In the middle 1994–95 season the Boryspil club merged again, now with the struggling Army's team CSCA Kyiv that was playing in the lower leagues. The Central Sports Club of the Armed Forces of Ukraine adopted the FC Boryspil as its senior team renaming it as CSKA-Borysfen. Soon enough the club was relocated to Kiev from Boryspil. The same year the club gained promotion to the top league (Ukrainian Higher League), while the original CSCA Kyiv which was turned into a farm-club of Borysfen also got promoted to the second league (the third division). Later in 1997 after a conflict within the club's administration CSKA-Borysfen changed its name once again to FC CSCA Kyiv and CSCA of lower leagues was renamed to CSCA-2 Kyiv.
In 1997 a new club was reestablished under the name of FC Borysfen Borysfen and started at amateur level and soon was promoted to the Druha Liha.[3] The club eventually won through to the Ukrainian Premier League, but by 2005 they finished in last position and were relegated back to the Persha Liha. In the 2005–06 and 2006–07 seasons played in the Ukrainian First League. In 2007, after the winter break, the club suffered financial difficulties, went into bankruptcy and folded.
Rebirth
In 2013 the club was reformed as a youth club that would participate in the Kiev Oblast competition with the future goals of returning to the national competition. [4]
