Football Club Nassaji Mazandaran (Persian: باشگاه فوتبال نساجی مازندران) is an Iranian football club based in Qa'em Shahr, Mazandaran, Iran. They currently compete in the Persian Gulf Pro League.

Nassaji has one of the highest average attendances in Iran. Nassaji is also the oldest club from the Caspian region of Iran and among one of the oldest in all of Iran. Nassaji was promoted to the Persian Gulf Pro League for the first time in 2018, making them the second team from the province of Mazandaran to ever play in the league.

History

Establishment

Nassaji Mazandaran Company established the club in Qaem Shahr in 1959. Nassaji entered the Qods Cup in 1988 and soon after they entered the top division Azadegan League in 1991 and remained a strong competitor in that division until 1995.

Recent years

Nassaji stayed in 2nd division until 2001 and when Iranian Football Federation decided to start a professional league, the Azadegan league became the second highest league in Iran. In 2004 Nassaji was relegated to 2nd Division but they were promoted back to the Azadegan League at the end of the 2005–06 season. On 3 August 2006 Nasser Hejazi signed as head-coach of Nassaji on a one-year deal for the 2006–07 season.

In the 2013–14 season, Nassaji had their closest call with promotion to the Persian Gulf Pro League since their relegation from the top flight in 1995, the team finished third in Group A which was one place out of a promotion play-off spot. The following season Nassaji again finished third and was two points out of a promotion play-off spot.
