History
Udon Banjan United Football Club was founded in 2019 in Udon Thani, Thailand. Although established as a football club, it did not participate in any professional league during its initial years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The club made its competitive debut in the 2022 Thailand Amateur League, a fourth-tier amateur competition organized by the Football Association of Thailand that served as a pathway for promotion to Thai League 3. However, Udon Banjan United was unable to achieve promotion in its first season.
In 2023, the structure of Thailand's lower leagues was reorganized. The Thailand Amateur League became a membership-preserving competition for clubs not yet ready to turn professional, while the newly established Thailand Semi-pro League was designated as the fourth-tier competition, requiring participating teams to meet Club Licensing criteria. Udon Banjan United applied and competed in the 2023 Thailand Semi-pro League, but was again unable to secure promotion. The club continued to participate in the Semi-pro League in subsequent seasons.[1]
Udon Banjan United achieved its first major success in the 2025 Thailand Semi-pro League. Competing in the Northeastern region, the club won all 11 matches, scoring 37 goals and conceding only 3, finishing with a perfect 33 points. By clinching the regional championship, Udon Banjan United earned promotion to the 2025–26 Thai League 3, marking the club's entry into professional football for the first time.[2][3][4][5]
