A brand new football club in Greater Bangkok, Siam FC aims to become one of the best football teams in Thailand, encouraging positive change in the football industry and reaching yearly revenue of THB500 million within the first five years.
From its strategic location in Nonthaburi, a province with more than 1.2 million people in Greater Bangkok, Siam FC is aiming to become one of Thailand’s top teams with a permanent position in Thai League 1 within five years. The team will start the 2019 season in Thai League 4.
Siam FC is the first fan ownership club, starting with 25 percent fan ownership, which is expected to rise to 50 percent. A truly modern club, Siam FC will use blockchain technology or an association format for its fan ownership, offering special discounts on tickets, merchandise, food and access to club parties. The Club President will change every four years with 12 members of the board exchanged annually.
Following a philosophy of skilful and fun-to-watch football, the club will also feature an academy nurturing future talent and developing a specific style of playing. With an aim to have 50 percent of players drafted from the academy after seven years, the academy will take a holistic approach, instilling healthy life and character values in players and focussing on building a strong team spirit.
In 2019 Siam FC will be based at the Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT) Stadium, an attraction for the 30,000 plus student population. In 2020 the club will move to the Nonthaburi Stadium, which seats 10,000 people and is owned and operated by Nonthaburi Provincial Department. With other high-traffic venues close by such as Impact Arena and Impact Exhibition Center, Nonthaburi is well connected with Central Bangkok via BTS and MRT. There are plans for a new, purpose-built 30,000 seat dome stadium to be finished by 2025.
