History

Sri Pahang was established by Sultan Abu Bakar in 1959 to represent the state of Pahang in the HMS Beagle Cup. In the next year, the association begins with the preparation against another states before taking part for the first time in the HMS Beagle Cup. Construction of their current home ground, Darul Makmur Stadium, was completed by the Council of Kuantan in 1970.

Led by the legendary Jamal Nasir, Pahang FA won the first cup in 1983 when they won the Piala Malaysia, the most prestigious tournament in Malaysia football after a win over Selangor FA in the tournament, breaking the long duopoly of Selangor FA and Singapore FA and also became the first East Coast team to win it. Nonetheless, the most successful era was in the 1990s, when the association reached the final of Piala Malaysia 4 times even though they only succeeded once in 1992. 1992 was the best year when the association won the double, the Piala Malaysia and the league. Sri Pahang in that year was touted as the Dream Team when several high-profile players played for the association with the like of Dollah Salleh, Zainal Abidin Hassan, Ahmad Yusof, Khairul Azman Mohamed, Abdul Mubin Mokhtar, Australian football legend, Alan Edward Davidson and Singaporean football legend, Fandi Ahmad. The association defeated Kedah FA in final stage to win the Piala Malaysia, thanks to the fastest goal ever in Piala Malaysia history by Zulhamizan Zakaria.^[vague]

Sri Pahang was also the first winner of the M-League in its new format in 2004.

As one of the most successful football teams in Malaysia from 1980 to 2007, Sri Pahang had produced many talented local players from the academy such as Khairul Azman Mohamed, one of the best goalkeepers in Asia in the 1990s, the prolific striker, Azizul Kamaluddin, Mohd Fadzli Saari who played in SV Wehen Wiesbaden in Germany and Muhammad Juzaili Samion who also played for the 4th division of Ligue 1 club, FCSR Haguenau in 2000.

In 2008, many players from talented young Shahzan Muda F.C. were absorbed into Sri Pahang.

In 2012, Sri Pahang was playing in the 2nd division of M-League. While in the Premier League, Sri Pahang showed great improvement in the 2012 season as they qualified for the Piala Malaysia quarter-finals. Sri Pahang was also Premier League runner-up in 2012, qualifying the association to play in the promotion "play-off" matches to the Liga Super. Sri Pahang beat Kedah FA in the final of the "play-off", winning promotion to the 2013 Liga Super.

In 2012, the association had to play in Temerloh Mini Stadium as the homeground for the first time after the Darul Makmur Stadium was put under renovation for the 2012 Sukma Games. A year later, the club returned to the newly-renovated Darul Makmur Stadium and in the same year, they lifted the Piala Malaysia for the third time, ending a 21-year cup drought.

Stadium

Sri Pahang are currently based at Darul Makmur Stadium in Kuantan, Pahang. The capacity of the stadium is 40,000 and also has a running track.[1]
