History

Early years (1909-1927)

The club was founded in the city of Korçë on 15 April 1909 under the name Vllazëria by politician and poet Hilë Mosi, making it the oldest club in Albania. During the years 1920 and 1922 there were football associations made in Korçë for the first time, such as Përparimi and Sport Klub Korça, in 1923 the Shpresa society was founded under the Albanian National Lyceum. But it was not until 1925 that Skënderbeu would be born, as football began to more popular in this city of Albania, almost every field would be used as a football ground for locals to play and enjoy the sport. This led to many neighbourhoods in Korçës trying to form their own small football teams. In 1926 the Zhgaba society was created, and in 1927 many neighbourhood teams were finally set up, such as Leka i Madh, Pirro, Brekverdhit, Zjarri, Tigri and Diamanti. However there was still a main squad representing the city, which was Skënderbeu who managed to overcome problems in the start, some even political.[1]

Championship (1930s)

The club participated for the first time in the Albanian First Division in 1930, which was the first Albanian tournament, and won one Albanian Title in 1933. Skënderbeu is also a three time finalist in the Albanian Cup in 1958, 1965 and 1976, in which they lost all three finals. They did however win the Albanian First Division in 1976. The greatest manager in the club's history is Fredi Stefo who is also their most successful manager ever, with the first team and youth teams.
