FC Gonio (Georgian: საფეხბურთო კლუბი გონიო) is a Georgian association football club based in Gonio, the southern settlement of Batumi.

They started taking part in the national league in 2021 and have since achieved three promotions within the four seasons. As winners of the 2024 season in Liga 3, Gonio have secured a place in Erovnuli Liga 2 for 2025.

History

The club was established in April 2021 and included in the Regionuli Liga West Group tournament for the upcoming season.^[1] After two initial wins under manager Giorgi Zoidze, Gonio afterwards stayed in midtable. In early July, before the season resumed, a new head coach was appointed. During this season, the team recorded six victories with a large margin, including 8–0 in October.^[2]

The next year Gonio made their debut in the David Kipiani Cup where they beat two opponents, including a third-tier team.^[3] Gonio were involved in the promotion chase along with two other clubs throughout the league season. They eventually came second in the table and qualified for the play-offs.^[4] In a crucial game held in Batumi, Gonio cruised to victory over Gldani and secured promotion to the fourth division.^[5]

Before the start of their new league campaign, Gonio signed several players with even a top-tier experience and unveiled their ambitious plan to advance further into the third division. An initial five-game winning run in Liga 4 indicated that they were serious title contenders. On 28 June 2023, Gonio recorded the biggest win in their history (14–1). Together with Betlemi, in September they became the co-authors of a unique occasion in Georgian football when a club gained promotion with seven matches still to play.^[6] Gonio continued an unbeaten streak during the remaining period and won the champion's title.

With new coach Levan Jokhadze at the helm, the team surged forward in the Liga 3 title race as well. They were ten points clear at the top with three matches in hand when a 5–0 rout of Gardabani on 14 November 2024 ensured another league title and automatic promotion the 2nd tier.^[7]
