In June 1942, Dr Abbas Ekrami opened the poetry book Divan-e Hafez and saw the following line:

so based on this line he named the club Shahin which means falcon. Shahin became a prominent club in Iran and formed other teams for its sub-clubs
Oghab F.C. ,Shahbaz F.C. ,Darius F.C. ,Simorgh F.C. ,Atom F.C. , andPirooz F.C. . [Special Edition: Thirty years of History of Persepolis Soccer Club: From Shahin til Pirouzi, Kayhan Publishing.]The club also produced many recognized Iranian players such as
