Биография
Formation
Football Club Džiugas Telšiai, commonly known as Džiugas, was established on November 2, 1923, in Telšiai, Lithuania. Initially formed as a sports association, Džiugas expanded its activities to include football, basketball, and ice hockey, among other sports. The club merged with another local sports club, "Laimutė," in 1926, which helped grow its membership to 145. Džiugas played its first football match on June 6, 1927, against the Lithuanian bicyclist union, ending in a 2-2 draw.
Early Success and Challenges
Throughout the late 1930s, Džiugas achieved notable success, becoming the champions of the Samogitia region in 1935, 1936, and 1937. The club also played its first international match in 1938, defeating the Latvian team "Olimpija" 2-1. However, after World War II, Džiugas was integrated into the state sports union "Žalgiris" and faced challenges in lower divisions of Lithuanian SSR football.
Reestablishment and Recent Achievements
The club was dissolved in 1994 but was reestablished in 2014 by the local football community. Džiugas quickly made an impact, finishing second in the II Lyga in their first season, which led to promotion to the I Lyga. Under the management of Marius Šluta, who took over in 2019, Džiugas won the I Lyga title that same year, earning promotion to the A Lyga, although they later faced licensing issues that prevented their participation in the top tier.
