Akademiya (Russian: "Академия") was a Russian association football club from Tolyatti, Russia. The club was founded in 1991 as a result of the merger between Energiya (Энергия) and Lada-Simbirsk (Лада-Симбирск). Before the 2010 season, two teams from Tolyatti, FC Togliatti and FC Lada Togliatti, were excluded from the professional leagues, with FC Akademiya representing Tolyatti at the time.

History

[edit]

It was founded in 1991 under the name "Lada". In 1997-1998 it was renamed "Lada-Grad", in 1999 — "Lada-Simbirsk". In 2000, the club was merged with the Energia Ulyanovsk team under the name Lada-Energia. In 2003-2007, it was called "Lada-SOK" and "Krylia Sovetov-SOK". After the 2007 season, the players and coaching staff moved to the newly formed FC Tolyatti, and in early 2010 there was a merger with FC Tolyatti, and the team finally moved to the Samara region. All football players of FC Akademiya were trained at the football center Konoplyov football academy.[1]

Until 2010, the team represented Dimitrovgrad. In 2013, the club and the Konoplev Academy became part of the Samara "Krylia Sovetov Samara".[2] In 2015, the club was merged with the youth team of FC Lada-Tolyatti, and given a new name "Academy-Lada-M". Since the 2015 season, the club has been playing in the third division of the MFS Privolzhye.[3]
