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.

The team was placed in the 12th position among 18 teams in the Thai League.

In 1997, Football Club Tero Sasana also played in the Thai League and this time was placed in the fifth place.
