History

Early years (1996–2000)

In its early years, Chonburii-Sannibat Samut Prakan Football Club was Assumption College Sriracha's football team. The team was managed by Annop Singtothong, Thanasak Suraprasert, Sontaya Khunpluem, and Wittaya Khunpluem. The team competed and were victorious in many youth tournaments, one of them including the Institute of Physical Education's youth football tournament.[3]

In 1996, Sannibat Samut Prakan Association competed in the Khǒr Royal Cup and came in second place. The directors of the football team then negotiated for a merger which resulted in the creation of Chonburi-Sannibat Samut Prakan. The team then competed in Thai Division 1 League or Thai League 2 today.[4]

Provincial league

Later, the Chonburi Sports Association had been given the chance to compete in the Provincial League in 2000. As a result, Chonburi's provincial football team was separated from Chonburi-Sannibat Samut Prakan thus renaming themselves as Chonburi Football Club which competed in Thai Division 1 League. The team that competed in the Provincial League acquired their players from Assumption College Sriracha and Chulabhon's College Chonburi. They ended their first season in the Provincial League in third place.[3]

In 2005, Chonburi won the Provincial League title by beating Nakhon Ratchasima at the Nakhon Ratchasima Municipal Stadium, and gained promotion to the 2006 Thailand Premier League with the Provincial League runners up, Suphanburi. This title was the first major success of the club.

In 2006, Chonburi were invited by Football Association of Singapore (FAS) to play in the 2006 Singapore Cup and reached the cup final, defeating local sides Home United, Albirex Niigata (S) and Balestier Khalsa along the way. In the final, they lost 2–3 to Tampines Rovers in extra time after leading 2–0.[5] Chonburi then finished 8th in the 2006 Thai Premier League season.[6]

First major success (2007–2014)

Top flight league title

In 2007, Chonburi were again invited to participate in the 2007 Singapore Cup, but were defeated in the first round against Balestier Khalsa, in a replay of the previous season's semi-finals where Chonburi lost 3–2. Chonburi than went on to win the 2007 Kor Royal Cup. Coming to the end of this season, Chonburi went on to become Thailand Premier League champions for the 2007 season. This was the first trophy in major league for the club and head coach Jadet Meelarp won the 'Coach of the Year' awards and Pipob On-Mo got 'Player of the Year' awards. The club than qualified to the 2008 AFC Champions League after winning the league.

In July 2008, Chonburi made another important big step into the future. In addition, the previous sponsor, Hemaraj Land and Development PLC signed a major sponsorship deal which comes into force from 2009. The contract will run for three years and will amount to the sum of 18 million baht (about 350,000 Euros). This may indeed be the largest completed sponsorship of a Thai football club which was ever completed.[7]

At the end of the 2008 season, there was only enough for runner-up. The main reason for this was certainly the profligacy. With two games left in the season you still on the first place in the table, but a 0–0 draw against Samut Songkhram made to naught in the penultimate round of the dream title defense. Jadet Meelarp was dismissed. His successor is officially announced in mid-December 2008. Kiatisuk Senamuang was appointed the head coach of Chonburi.[8]

AFC Champions League debut

On 20 March, the club achieved its first victory in the AFC Champions League against Melbourne Victory.[9] The game was clouded by controversy when Melbourne Victory scored their only goal whilst a Chonburi player was down injured and his teammates were calling for the ball to be played off the park. It mattered little when Cameroonian striker Jules Baga scored a goal from 35 yards out and then followed it up with a second goal in extra time to condemn Melbourne Victory to their first loss in the competition 3–1.[10] Chonburi than finished the campaign with 5 points finishing at the bottom of the group stage thus knocking out from the tournament. Chonburi then went on to finished as the league runners-up in 2008 thus seeing the club qualified for the 2009 AFC Cup.

In the round of 16, they faced off against another Indonesian club Sriwijaya where Chonburi won 3–0 and qualifying to the quarter-final meeting against Uzbekistan club Nasaf Qarshi. As both team were on a 1–1 aggregate over two leg, the game went on to penalties shootout in the second leg at the Markaziy Stadium in which the opponent went on to win 4–3 on penalties thus seeing Chonburi knocked out from the tournament.

Academy development

Chonburi is well known for producing football talent as well as using their youth players in the first team. In the 2007 Thailand Premier League in which they have been crowned champions, over 80% of their first-team players came from their youth program. However, in the past, their youth players stayed at boarding schools in Chonburi province such as Assumption College Sriracha and Chulabhon's College Chonburi.[13][14]

Today, Chonburi has a football academy where academy players train and live every day at. The idea of creating a football academy was spearheaded by former Chonburi head coach and current technical director Witthaya Laohakul, who stressed the importance of creating and producing quality football players for the first-team. In 2009, Chonburi decided to remodel its academy and youth program by building an actual football academy in Ban Bueng District. The new academy is located far away from Chonburi surrounded by paddy fields and was once rented out to JMG Academy.[15][14] In addition, this new football academy includes a dormitory and football training facilities for the academy players.

Chonburi recruits academy players by scouting them from tournaments as well as offering trials. Worachit Kanitsribampen is one of the first successful players to come out of Chonburi's newly restructured academy.[14] As of 2025, Chonburi Academy are one of only four academies in Southeast Asia to be conferred a Two-Star academy status alongside Johor Darul Ta'zim Academy, NFDP Mokhtar Dahari Academy in Malaysia and Lion City Sailors Academy in Singapore.

At the start of the 2007 season, Chonburi used the Chonburi Municipality Stadium as their home ground which can hold up to 5,000 capacity. Due to disagreements with the local authorities, the club played its home games at the Princess Sirindhorn Stadium in 2009 before moving their home ground again with IPE Chonburi Stadium as their home ground in 2010.[16]

With Chonburi winning the league title in 2008 which sees them qualified to the 2008 AFC Champions League, Chonburi played their home ground at the National Stadium which reach FIFA stadium requirements standard to host an AFC tournament. The club also used the stadium for their home games in the 2009 AFC Cup.
