History

MyPa was founded in December 1947 in the village of Myllykoski in the then municipality of Sippola, which in 1975 became part of the town of Anjalankoski and since 2009 is part of Kouvola. Before that there had been some small-scale football culture in Myllykoski, so forming a football club was a natural step. The final move came from the local paper industry, which built a football pitch with spectator stands. MyPa was promoted to the highest tier in 1975, but the season ended in relegation.

Veikkausliiga

MyPa have played continuously in the Veikkausliiga since 1992. Between 1993 and 1996 they were second four times in a row under the control of Harri Kampman. They also won a first Finnish Cup in 1992, and again in 1995. In 1997 Timo Liekoski was named as the manager of the club, but his employment lasted only one season. He was replaced by Juha Malinen. Between 1999 and 2001, under the control of Malinen MyPa were third three times in a row, and second in 2002. After the 2003 season Malinen was replaced by Ilkka Mäkelä. In 2004 MyPa won a third Finnish Cup, and the next season it was time for the first Finnish championship of the club. Mäkelä resigned during the 2007 season and the former assistant coach Janne Hyppönen became the new manager. Hyppönen was sacked in September 2008 and assistant Janne Lindberg took over in a caretaker capacity for the rest of the season.

International achievements

MyPa has participated in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, UEFA Cup and Intertoto Cup. It has faced many big clubs like Boavista, PSV Eindhoven, Dundee United, Politehnica Timişoara and Liverpool. In 2005 they reached the first round of UEFA Cup but lost the decisive match against Swiss side Grasshoppers 1-4 on aggregate.
