Kaya Futbol Club, also known as Kaya Cignal, Kaya Smart, Kaya Digiprint, or Kaya Aloha Boardsports, is an association football club based in the Philippines.

The Filipino word KAYA mean "We Can" and in Alibata, the ancient Filipino language, "Susi Ng Kapatiran" or key to brotherhood. Both of these definitions provide the basis for KAYA FC's team spirit and vision as a club when it was founded in 1996 by Rudy Del Rosario, Robert Kovach, Christopher Hagedorn and the late John-Rey Bela-Ong.

The Goal of the club was to become the most respected men's football club in the country; to provide a training ground for players with the desire to help in the development of Philippine Football; and focus on instilling a positive approach towards respect, loyalty and determination for the team and society as a whole.

History

1980-1990

In the late 1980's, one evening a week, players of all ages and from different backgrounds would get together on a basketball court for in-door football. The enjoyment of the weekly practices grew and the player's skill improved rapidly. They began to join outdoor 7 a-side football tournaments playing against different teams. Frequently the KAYA team members found themselves on the winner's podium receiving medals and trophies.

1990-2000

After a few years and multiple awards, they realized that many of their teammates were some of the best in the country and the team needed to set a foundation. The name KAYA Football Club was then created in July of 1996 and the beginning of the KAYA leadership on and off the field for football in the NCR and the Philippines became more prominent.

In the late 1990's KAYA FC participated in official and more challenging 11 a-side football tournaments organized by the National Captial Region Football Association. The team was eventually recognized as one of the only club teams capable of defeating the "big three" comprised of the Philippine Army, Philippine Air Force and Philippine Navy football clubs.

2000-present

Between 2000 and 2009 KAYA FC defeated the armed forces teams in two separate Championships and was the Champion of the United Football League (UFL) on three occasions (2009 the UFL became the LBC-UFL and invited the armed forces to join the league wherein KAYA FC placed 2nd).

In the last few years a number of KAYA FC players represented the Philippines in International Tournaments.[1]

The Football Alliance charged Kaya Football Club a fine of two hundred thousand pesos (Php 200,000) after their withdrawal from the United Football Cup.

“With accordance to Article 39 section 1 of the UFL Rules and Regulations, Kaya has been fined P200,000 for their withdrawal from the current LBC-UFL Cup. Article 39 Section 1 – A fine of Two Hundred Thousand Pesos Philippine Currency (PHP 200,000.00) shall be imposed on clubs for withdrawing after the submission of the Official Entry Form but before the submission of the Team Registration Form.”[2]

Controversies
