Batman Petrolspor is a professional Turkishfootball club located in the city of Batman. Formed in 1960, the club colours are red, white, and black and they play their home matches at Batman Arena. The club is named Petrolspor because Batman is the largest producer of oil in Turkey.[1]
Batman Petrolspor was founded in 1960 with several branches including athletics, basketball, football, swimming, volleyball, and wrestling. The club played amateur football in the Diyarbakır regional leagues until 1986 when they won promotion to the 3.Lig. The club won promotion to the 2.Lig soon after and competed in the division for several years.[2]
They have never won promotion to the Süper Lig, falling in the 2.Lig promotion semi-finals to Göztepe. The club were relegated to the 3.Lig at the conclusion of the 2005–06 season, and have competed in the division since then. Their greatest success in the Turkish Cup came in 1977 when they reached the fourth round, losing to Kocaelispor 3–0 on aggregate.[3] At the time, Batman Petrolspor were still competing in the Turkish Regional Amateur League.[2]
