Early history

Sukhothai FC was established in 2009 and entered the

Regional League Northern Division in 7th place out of 11 teams. In 2014, after 6 years in the third tier division, Sukhothai got the promotion to 2015 Thai Division 1 League
.

In 2015, the newly promotion team Sukhothai had a successful campaign in

2016 Thai League

In 2019, Sukhothai academy's top prospect, Jasraj Sangha, was offered a contract with the first team, but declined the offer, later stating that it was a "late notice".
