Shenzhen Bogang Football Club (simplified Chinese: 深圳壆岗足球俱乐部; traditional Chinese: 深圳壆崗足球俱樂部; pinyin: Shēnzhèn Bógǎng Zúqiú Jùlèbù) is a Chinese semi-professional football club based in Shenzhen, that competes in the Shenzhen FA City Super League, the fifth tier of Chinese football. It is located in the Bogang Community (formerly Village) in Shajing Street, Shenzhen. Being able to trace its origins back in 1941, when the village team of Bogang was established under Japanese occupation, it boasted the record of the oldest Chinese football squad that was active. To add on that, it was also the team that had won the most championships (5) in the Chinese Champions League, the Chinese fourth tier (including its predecessor National Football Amateur (Class C) League);[1] however, it stopped participating in the fourth tier until the 2019 season, as they won second place and were promoted.[2]
