Football Club Olimpiya Savyntsi (Ukrainian: Олімпія Савинці) or Olympia Savyntsi is a Ukrainian amateur football team from Savyntsi, Myrhorod Raion. In 2020 the team won the Amateur Cup.[1][2][3][4]

Savyntsi is located close to Velyki Sorochyntsi and Myrhorod. Due to proximity, Olympia often plays its more important games in Myrhorod.

History

Previously in 1976–1985 Savyntsi was represented by another football team from the local "Bolshevik" collective farm. In 2011 the team was reanimated at the agricultural company "Savyntsi".

In 2015, the club made its debut at national level in the Ukrainian Amateur Cup. It was eliminated in the starting round by Ahrobiznes TSC Romny. The club made a history after winning the 2019–20 Ukrainian Amateur Cup competitions. Since 2020 it competes in the Ukrainian Amateur Football Championship.

While having an amateur status in 2020s, due to its performance in the Amateur Cup, Olympia has been often featured in the Ukrainian Cup which predominantly involves participation of professional squads.

During the 2024–25 season, closer to its finish, the club lost its president Oleksandr Kulyk who died at age of 50.[5] The AAFU, Amateur League, postponed its season's calendar game against Rebel Kyiv.
