Shahin Shahrdari Bushehr Football Club (Persian: باشگاه فوتبال شاهین شهرداری بوشهر) is an Iranian football club based in Bushehr, Iran.Shahin means hawk or falcon in Persian language. They compete in the 2nd Division and hold home games at Shahid Beheshti Stadium.
Shahin F.C. was established in 1942 by Dr.Abbas Ekrami, a teacher.
Ekrami founded the club with help of some young students under the motto
Shahin produced many talented players like Parviz Dehdari, Masoud Boroumand, Homayoun Behzadi, Jafar Kashani, Hossein Kalani, Hamid Shirzadegan, and many more that played for Team Melli. These talents made Shahin popular in the 1960s but its very popularity was viewed as a threat by the Iran Football Federation and the Keihan Varzeshi newspaper (Iran's most important sports publication at the time). The conflict between them became worse and on July 9, 1967, two days after Shahin's 3–0 win against Tehranjavan F.C., the Iran Sports Organization declared Shahin F.C. as dissolved. League attendance dropped and other clubs including Pas, Rah Ahan, and Oghab tried to sign Shahin players.
