History

[edit]

The club was founded in 1997, as a pentecostal church hobby club, what is reflected in its original full name Nokian Kristityt Palloilijat (Nokia Christian Athletes).[1]

The men's team has been playing since 2008–09 season in the top Finnish competition, the F-liiga.[1] In 2017–18 season they won their first bronze medal and in 2021–22 season their first vice-championship.[2] In the next year, 2022–23, the men won the regular season,[3] but lost again in the finals.[4] In 2024 they won the Finish cup for the first time, but finished third in the league.[5]
