Zejtun Corinthians F.C.

Zejtun Corinthians FC is a Maltese football club from the town of Zejtun, the largest city in the south-eastern district of Malta.

After the World War II, the game of football in Malta was re-enacted, falling under the responsibility of the Malta Football Association. Like other local villages and towns, the Zejtun population eagerly set up a football team, and in 1943 the name of Zejtun Corinthians first emerged.

The team’s name was chosen from Corinthian Football Club, an English football team, based in London.

The club regular kit colours are navy blue and sky blue stripes. This colour scheme was first inspired by that of Sliema Wanderers, since at the time many ‘Zwieten’ supported Sliema Wanderers.
