FC Zana (Georgian: საფეხბურთო კლუბი ზანა) is a Georgian municipal football club based in the town of Abasha. They compete in Liga 4, the fourth tier of Georgian football.
The third tier is the highest division where Zana have taken part since the formation of independent Georgian championship in 1990. The team gained promotion to Meore Liga in 2015, although their tenure there lasted two seasons.[1] Following their relegation in 2016, Zana spent seven seasons in Regionuli Liga.
Zana came 3rd in their group tournament three times in four years, including in 2022, when the team was chasing promotion up until the last match. However, having lost a crucial game, they failed to overcome their two rivals and qualify for playoffs.[2]
This season the club turned out to be the only fifth-division side to have prevailed over four opponents in the Cup campaign and progressed into the round of 16 for the first time in their history.[3]
The next year Zana finished 2nd in the western zone of the regional league tournament, which implied securing a play-off qualifying spot. Following a 2–1 win over UG 35,[4] the club earned promotion to the 4th league for 2024.[5]
The team is also a regular participant of the annual Western Cup competition, organized by the regional Football Federation of Imereti. Zana won this tournament in 2020.[6]
