History
1905–1936: Beginnings
The association was founded in 1905 to establish an internal state league and to managed the league, called the Selangor Association Football League (SAFL). The first cup competition was sponsored by the British Resident of Selangor, RG Watson. There were also reports the association was led by British Residents at that time.
In 1926, the internal crisis led some officials to withdraw from the association and set up a separate association named Selangor Football Association (SFA). The dispute between the SAFL and the SFA continued for almost ten years before the two sides negotiated for the betterment of football future in the state of Selangor. Finally, the two football entities officially merged on February 22, 1936, under the name of the Football Association of Selangor (FAS) or Persatuan Bola Sepak Selangor in Malay language.[5]
1937–1957: Between World War 2 and Independence
![](../I/Tunku_abd_rahman.jpg.webp)
The outbreak of the Second World War slowed down FAS's efforts to develop domestic football. The effort was started aggressively as soon as the war ended. Efforts to uphold the state football continued with the association planning the construction of a typical football stadium for the team. The association who earlier used the Selangor Field Club (now Dataran Merdeka) as their home clearly requires a stadium in line with the association direction. The association management met the Mayor of Kuala Lumpur several times for permission on the construction of the stadium but has is still not found a solution absolutely yet. The dream to see F.A. Selangor in action in the stadium itself seemed fainter by the day.
However, the appointment of Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj as the first official FAS president (who holds the presidency of both Football Association of Selangor and Football Association of Malaysia) at that time is a right move for the association. Prime Minister of the newly independent Malaya, Tunku Abdul Rahman pioneered back in the stadium construction business and ordered the construction of the Merdeka stadium to celebrate the country's independence as well as the official F.A. Selangor home stadium. Merdeka Stadium will also be the official national stadium in organizing international sports.
The Independent MP for Bungsar (now known as Bangsar constituency and also a teacher by a profession, Mr. SCE Singam became the second official FAS president until 1953, then later been replaced by K. Sundram. Between 1952 to 1955, the club won 1 FAM cup and become runners-up in the 1952 and 1955 FAM Cup competition.
1961–1982: Leadership of Harun Idris era
Dato' Seri Harun Idris, is synonymous with football in Selangor on the 1960s. He became president of the FAS for 21 years from 1961 to 1982. During his leadership, F.A. Selangor won 15 Malaysia Cups as well as doing a lot of positive changes to the association.[6] The club was originally headquartered at the MCA building in Jalan Ampang long before the construction of Wisma F.A.S in 1973 at the Merdeka Stadium on the president own efforts (also Chief Minister of Selangor at the time) and club manager, Hamzah Abu Samah.
1983–1989: Ahmad Razali Mohd Ali era
Tan Sri Ahmad Razali Mohd Ali, that was Chief Minister of Selangor at that time becomes a FAS President from the year 1984–1989. In 1984 season, he guides F.A. Selangor to win for the first time top division football league in Malaysia that was first introduced in 1982 as Malaysia League. Besides that, F.A. Selangor also win Malaysia Cup in a season 1982, 1984 and 1986. Then later in 1989 season, he also guides F.A. Selangor to win the newly rebranding Semi-Pro Division 1 League that been replace the Malaysia League.
1990–1995: New Stadium and Wisma FAS
After a series of successes for F.A. Selangor, the FAS decided to stop using the Merdeka stadium to fulfill the ambitions of the club. As a result, new stadium development has been approved to be built. Finally, on January 1, 1990, a groundbreaking ceremony for a new stadium was opened in Shah Alam. With the construction of this new stadium, the Shah Alam Stadium will be born, a stadium that can accommodate up to 80,000 spectators at a time. Its structure is the longest free gate in the world in that era. It has also become one of the major landmarks in Shah Alam due to its impressive size and art. The main stadium for the club is now Shah Alam Stadium. The stadium has been the home of the F.A. Selangor since it opened in July 1994, after the club moved from the Merdeka stadium. FAS also move to new headquarters in Kelana Jaya which known as Wisma FAS in mid 1990.
1996–2010: 17 Straight Trophies Collection
This was F.A. Selangor most successful period. In the 1996 season, with Ken Worden as head coach, they won the Charity Cup and Malaysia Cup. The following season, Steve Wicks from England was appointed as head coach and guided the club to success in the Charity Cup, FA Cup and Malaysia Cup. The Australian-born tactician Ken Worden was appointed again and won the Charity Cup and Malaysia Cup in season 2002. Under the guidance of coach K. Rajagopal, Selangor won the Premier League 1 which is the top-flight league competition in Malaysia then. In 2004 season, F.A. Selangor was relegated to the second division, Malaysia Premier League. Dollah Salleh was appointed as head coach and won 2005 Premier League, FA Cup and Malaysia Cup. However, the following season F.A. Selangor did not win anything and this is a bad side back to the club management. In season 2009, K. Devan was appointed as head coach and also the club manager. This is the first time in the club history that both roles been given to the same person. K. Devan is considered one of the best managerial records holders for the club. He won 2009, 2010 Super League, 2009 FA Cup, 2009, 2010 Charity Cup. Season 2010 was the last occasion F.A. Selangor won the top division league competition in Malaysia; Super League.

However in 2015, the Australian born Mehmet Durakovic and former player of the club win the Malaysia Cup and increase the title collection to 33 times. Till now no other club in the history of Malaysia able to match the record held by F.A. Selangor. The management problem during the Mohamed Azmin Ali leads the club as a FAS President cause F.A. Selangor unable to use the Shah Alam Stadium as their home ground and the internal conflict between exco members and management of the club also lead to downfall of F.A. Selangor performance on the pitch.

Grounds
Stadium
![](../I/Shah_Alam_Stadium.JPG.webp)
Selangor have used several grounds throughout their history. The club's first ground was the Selangor Club Field (now known as Dataran Merdeka) where they played from their founding in 1936 until the independence of Malaya in 1957.
In September 1956, the club president, and also Malaysia's first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman, ordered the construction of the Merdeka Stadium to celebrate the country's upcoming independence as well as to be used as the new home stadium for the Red Giants. The stadium finished construction on 21 August 1957 and was inaugurated on 31 August 1957, the day Malaya declared independence from British rule. Right after the declaration of independence, Selangor moved its home matches to the Merdeka Stadium, which would become the club's home ground for the next 38 years. The first football match took place on 1 September 1957 which saw the Malaya defeat Burma 5-2 in a friendly match. In this stadium, which hosted 20,000 spectators, FA Selangor celebrated its first Malaysian league title in 1984.
After some successes, the club management decided that the Merdeka Stadium was not big enough for the ambitions of the club, and thus a new stadium was built and inaugurated on 16 July 1994. This was the Shah Alam Stadium as it is known today, which could host an astounding amount of 80,372 supporters, and became the club's home stadium for 22 years until 2016. The first match at the stadium was played between Selangor and Scottish club Dundee United in an invitational tournament, which resulted in a 1-1 draw, with the first goal being scored by Billy McKinlay. Other teams in the tournament were Bayern Munich, Leeds United, the Australian Olympic team "Olyroos", and Flamengo, who won the tournament.
In 2017, an internal crisis occurred within the club management, which resulted in the resignation of the club's president, Azmin Ali, who was also the Menteri Besar of Selangor at the time. The crisis began when executive members of the club reportedly rejected the notion of privatization, which was suggested by the club's president at the time, Mohamed Azmin Ali.[16] The crisis forced the club to move its home ground to the Selayang Stadium after the Selangor state government denied the club access to use their traditional home ground, the Shah Alam Stadium.[17][18]
The following year, the club management of Selangor decided to switch the club's home ground to the Kuala Lumpur Stadium for the 2018 season onwards.[19] The club's president, Subahan Kamal, stated that the Kuala Lumpur Stadium could generate a higher income and that the Selayang Stadium did not meet the needed lighting criteria required by the FMLLP which is organizing body of the football league in Malaysia.[20] FA Selangor originally proposed to use the club's traditional home ground, the Shah Alam Stadium and the Bukit Jalil National Stadium. However, both applications were rejected by the Selangor state government and the FMLLP respectively, with the latter's reason being that certain matches could collide with the Malaysia national football team's calendar.[21]
The club move back to the Shah Alam Stadium in the mid of 2018 season until present after new president was appointed, Tengku Amir Shah.
