FC Elimai ({{langx|kk|Елімай футбол клубы}}) is a Kazakh professional football club based in Semey. A leading club in the early years of the Kazakhstan Premier League, then named Elimai Semey (or simply "Elimai"), they were three-time champions of Kazakhstan in 1994, 1995 and 1998. They are currently in Premier League.

History

The club's predecessor is the Soviet team of masters of the local brick factory in Semey, hence the name Tsementnik (cement producer). The team of masters spent some 28 seasons in the Soviet Second League (Class B).

Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, in the mid 1990s the club became one of the leaders of the Kazakhstani championship as Elimai . Yelim-Ai (or Elim-ay) is the name of a historic poem of Kazakh people.

FC Elimai most recently won the Kazakh league while the Football Federation of Kazakhstan were AFC affiliates. After Kazakhstan switched to UEFA affiliation, Elimai were relegated to the second-tier Kazakhstan First Division.

After the merger of former Semey Province into East Kazakhstan Province in 1997, the city of Semey was no longer a province capital. Thus, all financial support from the former province went to Oskemen, the current province capital.
