Palestine Sporting Club (Arabe: نادي فلسطين الرياضي, literalmente Club Deportivo Palestino) is a Palestinian club that plays in the local Hattrick league of Palestine.
The club was founded by Palestinian nationalists and Orthodox Palestinian Christians living in the State of Palestine. The club was originally intended to be created as a separate club, but it was ultimately decided to create a national club with deep Christian-Palestinian roots, seeking a deep connection with that community in Hattrick.
The team plays at Falasteen Stadium, located in the city of Ramallah.
History
The club was founded in late April thanks to a conglomerate subsidized by Arab Orthodox Christians living in Bethlehem, with a visit from Greek executives living in Chile and support from other Arabs from other towns near the city. Initially, the club was going to be called Hamas Sporting Club in recognition of the group seeking Palestinian national vindication, but after the club was recognized as a terrorist group in the countries that supported the club's creation, it was immediately decided to change to Palestine Sporting Club, or Club Deportivo Palestino, with the clear objective of becoming a national and regional leader in the Palestinian state.
With the signed minutes and the first board comprised of Palestinian Christians, the club immediately established a regional identity supported by the community. It could only have players of Arab origin and Israelis of Arab descent, an identity applauded by the club's budding fans, who supported the initiative.
Philosophy and Identity
The club was born with the strong idea of creating a club with a strong Arab identity to represent the philosophy, culture, and beliefs of the Arab world in the face of current adversity and to champion the Palestinian cause internationally. This is what the club's board of directors, the founding president, and the Christian subsidiaries in South America who support the project have envisioned. The club's policy is to hire only players from the Middle East and build a competitive roster along those lines. Therefore, it has a strict restriction on hiring European, American, or African players, only players from the Arab world.
This also applies to the hiring of players from Israel, unless they have Arab roots or Arab descent, which is the only exception for their hiring and incorporation into the club.
Also, as a club founded by Palestinian Christians and Greek Orthodox Christians in Palestine, it has deep ties with the Orthodox world, thanks to the support of BezantCo, one of its subsidiaries and sponsors of the club's creation.
