History

Origins

Founded in 1921 as Perak Amateur Football Association (Malay : Persatuan Bola Sepak Amatur Perak), Perak has been represented by a team in the Malaya Cup since its inaugural season. [1] They were also one of the founding members of the Malayan Football Association (the predecessor to the modern Football Association of Malaysia) in 1926. [2] However, the team was not officially registered until 18 April 1951, when the newly formed governing body of Perak football, the Perak Amateur Football Association (PAFA) took over its management.
