History[edit]

Founded in Purbachal, Dhaka, in 1952, Purbachal began participating in the Dhaka Third Division Football League in the late '60s. The club earned promotion to the Dhaka Second Division Football League by finishing runners-up in the league during the 2000 season and eventually made their way to the top division of Dhaka football, the Dhaka Senior Division League, when it was made the country's second tier following the introduction of the first professional football league.

In 2010, Purbachal were relegated from the Senior Division League.[1] Since then, the club participates in the Dhaka Second Division League, now the second division football league in Dhaka and overall the country's fourth-tier.[2][3][4][5]
