Encyclopedic overview
Klubi i Futbollit Shkëndija (Macedonian: Фудбалски клуб Шкендија), commonly known as Shkëndija, is a professional football club from Tetovo, North Macedonia. Founded in 1979 by members of the local Albanian community, the club is closely associated with red-and-black colours and the ultras group Ballistët. Shkëndija play home matches at the modern Ecolog Arena in Tetovo and, since August 2013, have operated under the ownership of the Tetovo-based company Ecolog International.
After being dissolved in the early 1980s, the club was re-established in 1992 following Macedonian independence and climbed back through the domestic pyramid, earning a first promotion to the top flight in 1996–97. Shkëndija won their first national championship in the 2010–11 season with 72 points (21–9–3) and lifted the inaugural Macedonian Football Supercup a few weeks later. Sustained investment in the mid-2010s turned the club into a regular contender; league titles followed in 2017–18, 2018–19, 2020–21 and 2024–25.
