FC Chibati (Georgian: საფეხბურთო კლუბი ჩიბათი) is a Georgian association football club based in Lanchkhuti, which currently competes in Regionuli Liga, the fifth tier of the national league system.
History[edit]
Chibati were founded in 1983. They served as a reserve team for Guria and participated in the second division of Georgian championship for several years.
In 2018, the team was restored on the basis of a local Sport Centre. The next year they took part in Regionuli Liga, where the debutants under Revaz Kukuladze qualified for the Promotion Group.[1] In the second stage of the competition the team finished 9th.[2]
In the 2020 season, shortened by COVID, Chibati finished in mid-table. In early 2021, the team was faced with an extraordinary case during the opening game. Following the injuries sustained by both goalkeepers, an outfield player had to go in goal.[3]
In August 2021, the former Guria and Bakhmaro manager Temur Loria was appointed as head coach of the team,[4] who was replaced in early next year by Avtandil Nariashvili, also known for his tenure at Guria.
