History

2002–2008

Yeedzin were founded in 2002 by Jigme Norbu

Drukpol in the final.[4]

In

Rigzung 20–0 in the second half of the season.[8] They won the 2008 A-Division Knock-Out Tournament, beating Royal Bhutan Army 4–3 in the final.[8]

2009

However, despite scoring more goals than any other team and more than the bottom half of the table managed combined

Nangpa 12–0 in the quarter-finals and Choden 4–1 in the semi-finals, they lost 1–0 to Druk Star in the final as the mirrored what Yeedzin had achieved the previous season.[9]

2009 was also the first season that Yeedzin represented Bhutan in continental competition, their victory in the previous season's league competition meaning that they were awarded Bhutan's berth in the

Phnom Penh Crown of Cambodia. They travelled to Bishkek, where all the group games were played, but were beaten in all three games, conceding fourteen goals and scoring only three through Pema Chophel, Jigme Tenzin and Tschedupla
, and did not progress.

2012

The

Ugyen Academy, representing Punakha District.[13] A team representing Gelephug District was supposed to enter as well but apparently did not.[13] Yeedzin performed strongly in the competition, finishing the league after ten games unbeaten, whilst conceding only five goals.[13] They won the league by beating Drukpol 2–1,[15] coming from behind following a goal for Drukpol from Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck to claim the 400,000 Ngultrum prize.[15] Although they had lost their A-Division title, with this competition now merely being a qualifier for the new national league, Yeedzin had won their third consecutive national championship, the first time a team had achieved this feat since Transport United in 2006, the only other time in the history of Bhutanese football that this had happened.[12]

In addition to their domestic success, their championship-winning performance in the prior season also meant that they received Bhutan's place in the 2012 AFC President's Cup, the second consecutive time they had competed in the tournament and their third overall appearance.[16] Yeedzin were drawn in Group B for the Group stage along with Dordoi Bishkek of Kyrgyzstan, Nepal Police Club and Phnom Penh Crown from Cambodia.[17] They travelled to Phnom Penh, where all the Group B games were to be played, but again Yeedzin's performance was disappointing, as they lost all three games for the third time and conceded 23 goals, their worst defensive performance to date and did not progress. Unlike the previous year's tournament however, they were able to score two consolation goals through Chencho Gyeltshen and Tshering Wangdi in a 11–2 loss to Dordoi Bishkek.

2013–14

Yeedzin were able to recover their A-Division title in the

Ugyen Academy and so missed out on Bhutan's place in the AFC President's Cup for the first time in three years.[18] However, since they had won the previous year's National League competition, they did compete as Bhutan's entrant for the third consecutive year in the 2013 AFC President's Cup.[19]

They were again drawn in Group B for the group stage of matches along with Dordoi Bishkek, for the second year in a row,

KRL from Pakistan.[20] They travelled to Cebu City in the Philippines, where all the Group B matches were to be played, but for the fourth time were unable to gain any points, losing all three games and, for the second time in their for appearances, were unable to score a goal and did not progress from the group.[21]

2014 saw the worst performance in the A-Division by Yeedzin in their history.[22] With only three wins and two draws from their twelve matches, they finished in sixth place and failed to qualify for the National League for the first time.[22] In addition, since they lost the National League title to Ugyen Academy the previous season, they did not participate in the final edition of the President's Cup.[23]
