Background
Kaarinan Pojat was established on 1 October 1958 having been initiated by a young teacher from Loimaa, Olavi Kuikka. The founding meeting was held at Ylikylä school and Pauli Hollmén was elected as chairman and Olavi Kuikka as secretary. The executive committee consisted of Heikki Hallikainen, Veikko Polari, Raimo Åkerblom, Arvi Kukkonen and Pertti Kottonen.
The club progressed from its early roots and in 1976 Keijo Lindroos brought greater professionalism to the team's training which was born out by promotion of the men's first team to Division 3 in 1979. In 1991 the club gained promotion to the Kakkonen (Second Division) for the first time.
KaaPo have had two periods covering 18 seasons in the Kakkonen (Second Division), the third tier of Finnish football. The first spell was short-lived lasting just two seasons in 1992–93 but the second period has covered 16 consecutive seasons to date since 1995.[1]
An important part of the club has been the development of the junior section since the 1960s which over the years has brought many moments of joy and success
