Shahin Lian Shahrdari Bushehr Football Club (, 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 Beheshti Stadium. History Shahin F.C. (1942–1967) Shahin F.C. was established in 1942 by Dr Abbas Ekrami, a teacher. Ekrami founded the club with help of some young students under the 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. Establishment Shahin Bushehr was established in 1958 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. Promotion to the Iran Pro League The club achieved promotion to the Iran Pro League after a 3–2 aggregate playoff victory against Tabriz's Shahrari Tabriz, joining Tractor Sazi in the 2009–2010 edition of the Iran Pro League. In the 2009–2010 season, Shahin Bushehr set a new record in the top flight: they did not get any red cards in their matches.
