History
Foundation
The team was founded on 17 May 2015 by founding board leaded by Spartak's legends Atanas Atanasov, Lyudmil Goranov, Dimitar Trendafilov, Ilko Stanchev and Trayan Dyankov,[1] after the original club PFC Spartak Varna had bad leadership in the last years. The team wanted to use Spartak Stadium in order to start from the 3rd league - the Bulgarian V AFG, but this hasn't happened since the stadium was given to Spartak 1918, which withdrew from V Group and was dissolved. Some of the players who joined the team played also for the local futsal club Grand Pro Varna.
2015–present: Amateur Leagues
On 11 October 2015 the team signed a sponsorship with Ultra Gas, which would guarantee them enough money to prepare a new strong team in the future.[2]
On 6 May 2016 team applied to gain rights to play and operate with Spartak Stadium due the fact that they can't play on Lokomotiv Stadium in V Group in 2016–17 season if they get promotion. Atanas Atanasov had a talk with the sports minister Krasen Kralev who promised to give these right to Spartak, if the stadium become municipal property, due the fact that Spartak 1918 is the current operator of the stadium, even after the condition of the stadium is critical. Atanasov also said, that the team is looking for sponsors and eventually a club owner.[3] On 11 May 2016 the club gain the rights on Lokomotiv Stadium, which would give the mthe chance to start a compleate youth academy from the 2016/17 season.
