History

[edit]

Rajasthan United FC is the premier professional football club based in Jaipur. The club was founded in 2018 by an engineering student Kamal Singh Saroha, with his colleagues and friends as JECRC CF (Jaipur Engineering College and Research Centre), and re-branded as Rajasthan United in 2020,[3][7] after the introduction of Rajat Mishra and Swapnil Dhaka as the co-founders.[8] In its first year of inception, they managed to win the R-League A Division.[9][10] In the second season, United came out as runners-up and earned a spot for the I-League qualifiers.

In collaboration with Witty International School, they set up its residential football academy in Bhilwara.[11] In 2021, United were crowned champions of the I-League Qualifiers, thus becoming the first club from Rajasthan to qualify for the I-League.[12][13][14] In December, the club appointed Spanish manager Francesc Bonet as new head coach.[15][16]

United later roped in former La Liga player Mauro dos Santos of Argentina.[17] The club reached championship stage of 2021–22 I-League and ended their campaign as sixth in league table.[18]

Rajasthan United began their 2022–23 season campaign at the 131st edition of Durand Cup[19][20] on 20 August with a magnificent 3–2 win against Indian Super League side ATK Mohun Bagan.[21] The club moved to the quarter-finals, defeating Indian Navy in the final group game, but was eliminated losing 3–1 to Hyderabad at the end.[22] In November, the club reached final of Baji Rout Cup in Odisha, in which they clinched title defeating Churchill Brothers in penalty shootout.[23][24] When the 2022–23 I-League began, the club again faced Churchill Brothers in their first match, and earned three points with 2–1 win.[25] In December, the club participated in Dausa Gold Cup in Rajasthan,[26] in which they finished as runners-up after 1–0 defeat to FC Kerala.[27]

Stadiums

[edit]

Rajasthan United FC uses Rajasthan University Sports Complex in Jaipur as their home ground, and sometimes the Witty Sports Club ground.[28] In October 2022, the club announced that they will use Ambedkar Stadium in New Delhi for matches of 2022–23 I-League, as the traditional home and away games format was reinstalled.[29] Before 2021, in few matches of the state league, they used Sawai Mansingh Stadium.[30]
