ZC Excess Futsal Club was a Maltese futsal club based in Bidnija, last time known as Excess RP Bidnija after a merger with another local club RP Bidnija in 2011. [1]

In the 2009–10 season, ZC Excess were crowned champions of the Malta Futsal First Division. They secured their title after an impressive playoff run, defeating Paola Downtown with a 14–10 aggregate score in the semifinals, followed by a dominant 12–7 victory over Naxxar Motors in the final. The championship win granted them the right to represent [[Malta in the preliminary round of the UEFA Futsal Cup. [2]

It was one of the most successful Maltese futsal clubs having won three national leagues and one cup. [3]

In 2010, Excess became the first Maltese side to win a competitive European futsal game when they beat Albania’s KF Tirana. They then drew with eventual group winners Ilves FC from a Finnish city Tampere, to finish third in the preliminary round tournament in Cospicua. [4]
