History

[edit]

In their first season, 2009–2010, two years after the club formed, they entered and played in Regional League Division 2 Central & Eastern region. With a limitation of budget and environment, they finished in tenth position out of 12 teams. For the next season, the 2010–2011 campaign, they moved to the Southern division. When asked about the reason for the move, they cited insufficient budget and concerns about safety.

In the 2011–2012 season, the club targeted a return to join the league again after pulling out in the 2010–2011 season. The new chairman, Mr. Songkiat Lim-aroonrak, appointed and aimed to change the club philosophy for the next generation of success. He considered re-designing the club with a new logo, stadium and appearance.

In season 2014–2015, the club won AIS League Division 2 – Southern Region and advanced through Champions League Round. They defeated Thai Honda in the final match and were crowned the title.

In season 2015–2016, the club began to play in Thai Division 1 League since the founding of the club in 2011. They finished mid-table, with good performance for their first season.

In season 2016–2017, the club changed the team name to "PT Prachuap" to reciprocate for the main sponsor, PTG Energy, which sponsored the club by strengthening the squad with 20 new players and a more experienced coaching staff.
