Police Tero Football Club (Thai: สโมสรฟุตบอลโปลิศ เทโร), formerly known as BEC Tero Sasana is a Thai professional football club based in Bangkok. The club finished runners-up in the inaugural AFC Champions League competition in 2003. BEC Tero Sasana merged with Police United in the 2017 season and changed its official name to Police Tero Football Club in the 2018 season.[1]

Club history

The team was established in 1992. It was previously known as Sasana Witthaya School team and was founded by Mr. Worawi Makudi. The first football match the team entered was in Division 3 of the football royal cup in 1993. In 1994, the team played in Division 2 of the football royal cup. In 1995, the team played in Division 1 of the football royal cup and in 1996, the team entered the Thai League for the first time. It was during this year, that Mr. Worawi Makudi and Mr. Brian L. Marcar, managing director of BEC-TERO Entertainment Public Co. Ltd., joined hands and renamed the team as Tero Sasana Football Club. The team was placed in 12th position among 18 teams in the Thai League.[2]

In 1997, Tero Sasana Football Club also played in the Thai League and this time was placed in fifth place. Later in 1998, BEC-World Public Company Limited supported the Tero Sasana Football Club and changed the team's name to BEC Tero Sasana FC. The team won the third place when they played the Thai League. They were also one of the eight final teams to enter the final round of the Thai FA Cup.[3]

In 1999, the team entered the Thai League and again won third place. In the same year, they were among the final teams in the Thai FA Cup.

2000 was a very eventful year for BEC Tero Sasana FC. The team won its first championship award by winning the Thai League. It also received the championship award for the King's Cup.

In 2001, BEC Tero Sasana FC was able to keep its championship and won the Thai Premier League for the second consecutive year. This greatly increased the fan base.

BEC Tero Sasana in 2009

The club's success continued for a few years and culminated with finishing runner-up in the 2002–03 AFC Champions League.[4][5]

In 2012 the club appointed Robert Procureur, former general manager of Muangthong United, to be the new Director of Football. He built up a great team by pushing up many young players such as Peerapat Notchaiya, Tanaboon Kesarat, Chanathip Songkrasin, Tristan Do, Chenrop Samphaodi, Jaturong Pimkoon and the fan called "Golden Generation" that was the important to help the team win the Thai League Cup Trophy in 2014, its first trophy in 12 years.[6]

In 2016 after the club was relegated (Saraburi F.C. was out of the Thai league due to their money problems in 2016 so the club was placed in the place of Saraburi F.C.), club president Brian L. Marcar sold the team to Inspire Entertainment related company to Siamsport the owner of Muangthong United. Mr. Robert Procureur quit and the superstar player as Peerapat Notchaiya, Tanaboon Kesarat, Chanathip Songkrasin, Tristan Do, Tristan Do joined Muangthong United.[7]

In 2017 the club takeover by Police Group then merged Police United. The club name change was not recognized in 2017, so in 2018 the club will change the name to Police Tero Football Club due to AFC Club Licensing.[8]
