FC Zhlobin is a Belarusian football club based in Zhlobin, Gomel Oblast.

History

The team was founded in 2003 as Kommunalnik Zhlobin. In the same year they joined Belarusian Second League, where they have been playing ever since.

Kommunalnik showed some good results in their first five seasons. They were close to promotion in 2006 and 2007, but finished 4th both times. They also qualified for eighthfinals of 2007–08 Belarusian Cup. However, in early 2008 the financial problems struck the team. They withdrew from the cup[1] and changed their name to the current Zhlobin. Their league results declined as they never finished above 10th place until 2013.
