History

In terms of football Kediri has quite a long history. The beginning of the emergence of the sport football in Kediri started with the opening of Dutch factories that employed Dutch people, it was they who brought football far into the interior like Kediri. During the colonial period, economic conditions in Kediri were controlled by the Dutch, for the economic sector Kediri was indeed famous for its sugar production. With the establishment of many sugar factories in the Kediri area by the Dutch, it also had an influence in various aspects, one of which was sports. And one of the most developed sports in Kediri is football. After the construction of the PG. Meritjan sugar factory in 1918, Dutch employees also entered Kediri. At first the people of Kediri were just spectators when the sport of football was played by employees PG. Meritjan. These employees often do sparring and when their team members are lacking they often ask the audience to play along. This was the beginning of the people of Kediri getting to know the game of football. ^[2]

Foundation

Since the arrival of football in Kediri, local people have started to like this sport. Initially the Kediri people only played football when the Dutch held a soccer match, but over time the Kediri people began to play it alone without the presence of the Dutch. Football is a sport that is easily accepted by the people of Kediri because this sport is easy to play and this sport emphasizes teamwork. Football seems to be a culture among the people, football in Kediri began to develop with the emergence of soccer clubs in the Kediri area. Not only small clubs that appeared in several areas of Kediri, but in 1950 the association football club was established in Kediri, namely Persik. ^[3]

In the archives of the management, the Indonesian Football Association of Kediri (abbreviated PERSIK) was established on 9 May 1950. The founders were the regent of Kediri, R. Muhammad Machin with T.H.D. Rachmat (Liem Giok Djie) and M. Sanusi. At that time Kediri still had the status of regency, there were no regional divisions, regencies, and city. With the help of Liem Giok Djie, he became a senior official of PT. Gudang Garam has something in common with Muhammad Machin in terms of football. When the two met, an agreement emerged to develop football coaching in Kediri. He first designed the team's flag which was composed of two colors. The top is red and the bottom is black with the words Kediri in the middle of the two colors.

Since the Liga Indonesia started in 1994, Persik has won 2003 and 2006 editions respectively. The club promoted to the top-tier level in 2002.

Above the image of the gate is the inscription Persik, as the name of the team and the inscription Kediri below the image of the gate, indicating the city of origin of this club. This peach logo is the fruit of a design by a Kediri artist named Harsono. He is also known as a teacher in this town. The peach logo is used until now and has not changed. The nickname of the White tiger that is pinned refers to the symbol of the Kediri city government. The White Tiger is believed to be the incarnation of King Jayabaya, which until now has become a symbol of the fame of the Land of Kediri.
