Starting as only a little village with very few houses in the 1950s, throughout the years the town of Swieqi has evolved and expanded into an area comprising at least 10,000 inhabitants. This town also includes the principal areas of Swieqi, Ta' l-Ibraġ and Madliena.
We feel that the time has come for the areas of Swieqi-Ta' l-Ibraġ-Madliena to be represented by a proper and well-established football team. Some would say, what's in a name? Well, a name is everything! This team would represent the whole community and would also provide a necessary and fruitful identity to our society.
Football is the most popular sport on the island and it is important that a town of Swieqi's calibre, lacking a sense of belonging, would have a team reflecting its constant progress.
There are other communities such as Mġarr, Gudja and Burmarrad (to name but a few) which have populations of only about 4,000 people. Now, keeping this in mind, with a population of 10,000 people, why shouldn't Swieqi have a club to compete in an amateur league affiliated with the MFA?
We have often met people who have expressed their enthusiasm in founding a club which would represent both them and their hopes and dreams. Swieqi FC would be the people's club, built on determination, ambition and quality.
