Pluakdaeng United Football Club (
History
The club was founded in 2005 but took their first steps on the Thai professional league setup in 2007 when they played in Division 2 which was at the time a league that was at step 3 and was a national league, unlike today's system of regional leagues at step 3.

The move out of their home province seems to have been forced with the local government authority getting behind the Prachinburi United football club that was formed in 2010.[citation needed]
The relocation proved successful as they were promoted to Division 1 after finishing second in the
