Pendikspor is a Turkish sports club based in Pendik, Istanbul. The club's homeground is the Pendik Stadium.[1]
Pendikspor's best known football section, with a history dating back to 1927, continued its activities without being subject to official procedures until 1950. The club competed in the Istanbul amateur leagues until the 1982–83 season. With the establishment of the 3rd League in 1984, the club gained professional status and remained in the TFF Third League until the 1992–93 season. After being relegated to amateur status that season, the team returned to the TFF Third League the following year. In the 1997–98 season, the club became champions of the TFF Third League and were promoted to the TFF Second League. The club played in this league for two seasons and then were relegated back to the TFF Third League in the 1999–2000 season.
On 14 December 1999, in the Turkish Cup draw, vice president Yunus Abanozoğlu drew Fenerbahçe as the opponent, and the match was played at Pendikspor's home ground. The club gained recognition by defeating Fenerbahçe 2–1. In the 2003–04 season, the club became champions of the TFF Third League Group 4 and proceeded to be promoted to the TFF Second League. From 2003-04 to 2021-22 they competed in the TFF Second League then getting promoted to the TFF First League. In the 2005–06 season, the club reached the play-offs to determine the third team to be promoted to the TFF First League. However, they were eliminated by Eskişehirspor in the final match. On 28 November 2012, thirteen years after their previous encounter in 1999, Fenerbahçe and Pendikspor were drawn against each other again in the 4th round of the Turkish Cup. This draw led to laughter in the room where the draw took place, and headlines stated, "They drew their jinx." The match ended with Fenerbahçe winning by the scoreline 1-0 thanks to a goal from Sezer Öztürk in the 45th minute.
In the 2014–15 season, the club finished 2nd in the TFF Second League White group, qualified for the play-offs, and eliminated Menemen FK in the quarter-finals. However, they were defeated by 1461 Trabzon in the semi-finals, therefore missing out on promotion to the TFF First League. In the 2021–22 season, Pendikspor secured the championship of the TFF Second League League White Group with 5 weeks left in the season. By defeating Eskişehirspor 3–1, the red and white team guaranteed promotion to the TFF First League.[2]
In the 2022–23 season, the club won the play-off final match against Bodrumspor 2–1, achieving promotion to the Süper Lig for the first time in its history.
