K.FAda Velipojë

KF Ada was established on 6 March 1996 as a sports association by Lazër Matia, Alfred Pjetri, Filip Kercunga, Marash Qytetza and Prend Përndreca. The club’s name was inspired by Ada Bojana, an island in the Adriatic Sea located just across the border in Montenegro. It succeeded an earlier local side, KS Velipoja, which had been operated by the municipal authorities until financial support was withdrawn and the club ceased operations. Beginning its competitive history in the Albanian Third Division, KF Ada quickly earned promotion to the Albanian Second Division. The club achieved its greatest success during the 2004–05 season, when it won the Second Division promotion playoffs by defeating KS Burreli 2–1 in the final, securing its first promotion to the Albanian First Division.
