Our Story

52 years. And we never stopped believing.

In 1974, Haiti stepped onto the world's biggest stage for the first time. In 2026, we're back. Through everything, we never let go of who we are. This is for every Haitian, everywhere,  lakay or far from home, we carry Ayiti with us.

We represent Ayiti.
AYITI FC is a way to wear our pride. Our crest, our colors, our history — made for the people who feel Haiti in their blood, no matter where life has taken them.

The name.
Before "Haiti," there was Ayiti, the word the island's first people, the Taíno, gave this land: "land of high mountains." When our ancestors won their freedom in 1804 and became the world's first Black republic, they took that name back. We carry it forward. Ayiti is the original. Ayiti is ours.



Four Waves. Four Titles.
Look closely at our crest. Those four waves aren't just design — each one is a championship Haiti has won. Four times, Haitian football rose like a tide and took the crown.

  • The First Wave · 1957 — Haiti's very first title: champions of Central America and the Caribbean (CCCF). We won it on our very first try, in Curaçao, sealing it with a 6–1 win over Cuba.
  • The Second Wave · 1973 — Our crown jewel: champions of CONCACAF, won at home in Port-au-Prince in front of our own people. To this day, Haiti is the only Caribbean nation that has ever won it — and this is the title that carried us to our first World Cup.
  • The Third Wave · 1979 — Champions of the Caribbean (CFU), won away in Suriname with a 1–0 victory over the host nation.
  • The Fourth Wave · 2007 — Caribbean Cup champions, won in Trinidad, beating the hosts 2–1 in the final.

Four waves. Four titles. One nation that keeps rising.


1974 → 2026.
That 1973 title sent Haiti to the 1974 World Cup, our first ever. There, a striker named Emmanuel Sanon scored a goal the world never forgot, putting tiny Haiti ahead against mighty Italy and ending one of the greatest defensive records in the game. For 52 years, that was our only World Cup. Now, in 2026, the Grenadiers have returned, and a new generation gets to make the diaspora roar again.



Grenadye, alaso!
"Grenadiers, charge!" — the war cry our ancestors shouted on the road to freedom. It's older than any team or league. It belongs to all of us. Today it's the chant of a diaspora that has never stopped believing. When Haiti plays, we rise. Grenadye, alaso!


What we make.
Original kits and fanwear, built around our own crest and our own story, nothing borrowed, nothing pretending to be official, just real Haitian pride you can wear. Made for the stands, the streets, the cookout, and everywhere the diaspora gathers.

Lakay. Libèté. Fyèté.
Home. Freedom. Pride. That's what we wear. That's who we are.

Viv Ayiti pou tout tan gen tan.
Forever Ayiti. 🇭🇹
