ABOUT US OUR STORY

FC NOAH. STORY

FC Noah, founded in 2017, is one of the youngest clubs in Armenia — yet in just a few short years, it has rewritten the narrative of what’s possible for a small club with big dreams.

FC Noah is an Armenian football club based in Yerevan.

Established as FC Artsakh and later renamed FC Noah in 2019.

The club won the Armenian Cup in 2020, followed by the Armenian Supercup later that year, marking its arrival among the nation’s elite.

In August 2023, Vardges Vardanyan became the club’s president and started a new chapter in the club’s growth. Noah FC President Vardges Vardanyan is a prominent Armenian entrepreneur and technology magnate. He is the founder and president of Digitain.

FC Noah is fast-growing club in Armenia, combining strong ambitions, international partnerships, and historic achievements in a short period of time.

The club’s vision was clear from the start: to build a modern football identity rooted in passion, development, and ambition. FC Noah quickly began reshaping Armenian football with a progressive approach. Domestic silverware was only the beginning.

In 2024, Noah made history by qualifying for the League phase of the UEFA Conference League. Starting from the very first qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League, FC Noah became the only team in the entire tournament to progress through all four qualification rounds and reach the league phase, beating team such as AEK Athens in 3rd qualification round — a feat unmatched by any other club that season.

The 2024/25 season was written in golden letters in the club’s history. FC Noah won the Armenian championship title and also became the winner of the national cup in the same season.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

The club's goal is to establish football in Armenia on solid and institutional foundations, bringing it to a level where it becomes an integral part of national identity, a source of pride, and a path to excellence. The club’s goals and football dreams are not solely tied to FC Noah. The main dream is the long-term development of Armenian football, for which a long journey and significant strategic effort are necessary. Although the club has set the highest goals, the priority is placed on the development of the football discipline itself, with youth football at its core. In this regard, the Noah Academy is one of the primary focuses. The academy should become a hub for producing top-class Armenian footballers, where future stars of the Armenian national team will be nurtured. The academy should also become a place where talented young players, both from Armenia and abroad, will aspire to join and receive high-level football education. FC Noah has entered into an exclusive collaboration with an international professional coaching team, which is already in Armenia. FC Noah have selected the best specialists in youth football development, scouting, recruitment, and the integration of information technologies in football.

Vardges Vardanyan

"We didn’t enter Armenian football with a long history behind our club, but our love for the game runs deep and goes back many years. We believed that with the right mindset, team, and values, even a young club could bring change, compete at the highest level, and build something lasting. Step by step, we’ve been doing just that. Today, FC Noah stands for progress. For possibility. For purpose. Our goal has never been just to compete — it’s to elevate. To raise standards in Armenian football. There’s still much to achieve.
