Adana Demirspor

Adana Demirspor Kulübü is a multi-sports club based in Adana, Turkey. The football department is the most popular department, which was relegated to TFF 1. Lig on 16 March 2025 after 4 seasons at the Super Lig. Founded by railway workers of Turkish State Railways (TCDD) in 1940, the football team's success at the Adana League and the water polo team's unbeaten National League titles in the club's first three decades built a large worker fan base in the city. Some supporters who were unhappy with the management of the club founded Adanaspor in 1954, and competition among the two clubs for the citywide support and domination since then, created one of the fiercest rivalries of Turkish football which continues to this day as the Adana derby. They currently play in the TFF 2. Lig, following back-to back relegations, with one of them being administrative.
