"Rangdajied" in the Khasi language is an expression which signifies a brave, courageous, patriotic man at the prime of his youth.[15]
History
[edit]Foundation and early years
[edit]Rangdajied United was founded in 1987 as Ar-Hima.[17][18][19][20] The club has participated in various editions of the Shillong Premier League and enjoyed massive rivalries with their fellow Shillong based clubs Shillong Lajong and Royal Wahingdoh.[21]
The club has participated in the 2013 I-League 2nd Division and qualified for the main round.[22][23][24] Having won the 2013 I-League 2nd Division final round held in Bangalore, Rangdajied United earned qualification to I-League.[25][26] On 20 November 2013, Rangdajied agreed the signings of India national team stars Gouramangi Singh, Subrata Pal, Sandesh Jhingan, Manandeep Singh, and Tomba Singh,[27][16] and competed in the 2013–14 season.[28][29][30][31][32] They finished as 11th in the league table with 25 points in 24 matches. In the following season Rangdajied was evicted from I-League for not fulfilling the Asian Football Confederation's club licensing criteria.[33][34][35][36]
After clinching the 2013 edition of Shillong Premier League, Rangdajied finished as runners-up in 2016 season.[37] In 2015–16 season, the club was managed by Khlain Pyrkhat Syiemlieh, who cleared the AFC A licence at that time.[38] Rangdajied then became a regular participant in Meghalaya State League, formed in 2017.[39][40][41] Later in 2019 season, they again achieved runners-up position, gaining 22 points in 12 matches.[42] The club finished as runners-up in second edition of the Meghalaya State League.[43]
Later years (2020–present)
[edit]In June 2023, Rangdajied clinched their first ever Meghalaya State League title, defeating Khliehmawlieh YC in final.[44][45][46] In November of the same year, the club returned to the nationwide league, joining newly formed I-League 3.[47] Later on 10 November, club CEO Andrew Suting officially announced Meghalaya Tourism as main sponsor, stating, "The support from Meghalaya Tourism will undoubtedly contribute to the growth and development of the football club while simultaneously drawing attention to the treasures of the state."[47]
In August 2023, Rangdajied United gained I-League 3 spot to compete in the inaugural edition.[48] They began the league campaign on 13 November in Goa, beating Millat FC 5–0 in Group C.[49] In August 2024, the club was welcomed by the Durand Cup Organising Committee and included in the group stages of the 133rd edition of the tournament, replacing Indian Super League outfit Hyderabad.[50][51][52] Rangdajied began the competition campaign with a 4–3 defeat to FC Goa in Shillong on 5 August.[53][54] In the next match, Rangdajied played against arch-rival Shillong Lajong at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, that went on to a 2–0 defeat resulting club's failure to move to the knock-out stage.[55][56]
