History

In 2008, former national team captain Upendra Man Singh with a few other people having football background established a social club. It did social work and also gave the youths football training to local youths to keep them from bad habits. Football For Education is the club's motto. The team gained promotion from the 2010 Martyr's Memorial C-Division League and again from the 2011 Martyr's Memorial B-Division League. They reached the semi-finals of the inaugural Ncell Cup knockout tournament losing 2–0 to Ranipokhari Corner Team. They failed to maintain that form in the 2012-13 Martyr's Memorial A-Division League and got relegated by just one point.^{[citation needed]}
