Yishun Super Reds Football Club was a South Korean professional football club based in Yishun, Singapore, which played as a foreign team in S.League between 2007 and 2009.

History

The creation of the club in 2007 was driven by the Korean community in Singapore. Parties involved in the governance of the club include the Korean Association of Singapore, and the Korean business community and Korean embassy in Singapore. The club was originally known as Korean Super Reds FC, but changed its name to Super Reds FC in August 2007.

In 2010, they changed their name to Yishun Super Reds FC in an attempt to convert the team into a local team with them retaining just 4 players from the 2009 season however the newly reformed Yishun Super Reds FC was denied a place in the 2010 S.League.

The team play their home games at the Yishun Stadium.

The club's founding chairman and coach was the Korean football guru Hong In-Woong, who was previously the Technical Director of Sporting Afrique FC. His successor is Charlie Yoon, who was the CEO of the club's main sponsor, QT Technology Pte Ltd.

Attempt at Localizing

After the 2009 season, Super Reds FC retained just four players from the 2009 season in an attempt to convert into a local team and renamed the team as Yishun Super Reds FC, but the newly reformed Yishun Super Reds FC was denied a place in the 2010 S.League.[1]
