Football is a major sport in Abkhazia (a territory in the Caucasus). During Soviet times, the main club within Abkhazia itself was FC Dinamo Sukhumi, but Abkhazian footballers were prominent in the Georgian team FC Dinamo Tbilisi and in other Soviet teams. In 1994, after its declaration of independence from Georgia, Abkhazia organised a nine-team amateur league. Outside football, many Abkhazian sportsmen participate in international competitions as Russian citizens, especially in boxing and freestyle wrestling. A basketball team based in the capital Sukhumi plays in a Russian league.

- Le sport en Abkhazie connaît quelques difficultés de représentation à l'international. L'Abkhazie n'étant pas reconnue comme une nation à part entière, certains sports ne permettent pas aux athlètes abkhazes de concourir sous leurs couleurs. Pour pallier ce problème, de nombreux athlètes choisissent de porter les couleurs de la Russie. (fr)
