Rajpracha Football Club (Thai: สโมสรกีฬาราชประชา) is a Thai professional football club.[1] The club is currently playing in the Thai League 3.

History

Rajpracha was formally founded in 1966 by Pol Maj-Gen Mom Rajawongse Jetjan Prawit in the name of the "Ratchaprachanukroh Fire Fighting Football Team". In the past, the Rajprachanukroh Foundation organized training Thai Scout, therefore it has added sports into the scout curriculum by bringing footballers in those days to train football for children in which the club began as a youth team for the Police United.[2] [3]

In 1976 the club won the Thai FA Cup competition under the name of "Youth Development Team". In the 1998 Thailand Premier League season (Thailand Premier League 1998), Rajpracha FC played under the name "UCOM Rajpracha".

Rajpracha took part in 1995/96 Asian Cup Winner's Cup. They had a bye to the second round, where they took on Indonesian outfit Petrokimia Putra, but they lost 7–7 on the away goals rule.[4] [5]
