Phang Nga United FC has been established with a mission to bring top-level football to the province, nurture local talent, and inspire the next generation of athletes. The club will compete in the Thai Semi Pro League of the Thai football pyramid (tier 4) with its debut season kicking off in 2026.
“This is an incredibly proud moment for Phang Nga,” said Club President Russ Horsley. “Our vision is to create a club that represents the heart and spirit of this province, combining local pride with professional ambition. We want to give young players opportunities to grow and give our community a team they can truly call their own.”
The club’s identity draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Phang Nga, famous for its emerald seas, limestone cliffs, and vibrant culture. The official crest and kit, to be unveiled in the coming weeks, will embody the province’s heritage and passion for sport.
Phang Nga United FC is also committed to community engagement, with grassroots football programs, youth academies, and outreach initiatives designed to strengthen the bond between the club and local supporters.
“With Phang Nga United FC, we’re not just building a football team, we’re building a family,” added Horsley. “Our fans will be at the heart of everything we do, and we are determined to make them proud both on and off the pitch.”
The club invites football fans across Thailand, especially those from Phang Nga, Krabi, and Phuket provinces, to join its journey and come to support the team as it strives to become a competitive force in Thai football.
