The Metalist 1925 Kharkiv is a Ukrainian professional women's football team of Metalist 1925 from Kharkiv, Ukraine. In 2006–2023,[2] it was better known as Zhytlobud-1 Kharkiv (Zhilstroi-1). Since 2015, it is a leader of women's professional football in Ukraine with the most national titles.

History

[edit]

In 2006[1] the female team received financial support from the Kharkiv construction company "Zhytlobud-1" and was named after it as Zhytlobud-1 Kharkiv, in the Russian variant Zhilstroi-1. The newly formed club has gained many players from another Kharkiv-based club, Arsenal, which was falling apart at that time. Oleh Ruban and Yaroslav Latsfer, who knew one another in Metalist Kharkiv, were placed in charge of the newly formed team. Led by Latsfer from 2009 to 2015, Zhytlobud won five seasons in a row (2011–2015). After winning the 2015 season, Zhytlobud-1 set a new record for the most titles in the league (7), surpassing the records of Lehenda Chernihiv (6 titles) and Donchanka Donetsk (5 titles). Its winning run was interrupted by another Kharkiv club, Zhytlobud-2, which later became Vorskla Poltava.

Following the 2022 full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the club suspended its participation in professional football, while its junior team, Persha Stolytsia, competed in the Swiss football competitions.[3] In 2023, the club renewed its participation in cooperation with another football club, Metalist 1925. It changed its name from Zhytlobud-1 to Metalist 1925 on 20 March 2024 after both clubs were fully integrated.
