History

Red Eagles Soccer Club was founded in 2016 with the mission of providing a platform for young female footballers in Kedah to develop their skills and compete at higher levels. The club was initiated by Irwan Rashidi who also serves as its president. Initially operating without affiliation to any state football association, Red Eagles SC began participating in local leagues and invitational tournaments. [2]

In 2021, the club expanded its operations to include youth development programs and squads for national-level tournaments. Despite absence of direct backing from the state football association, Red Eagles SC has sustained its growth through community support and grassroots participation. In December 2021 the club won the 4-Penjuru Invitational Tournament, scoring seven goals across four matches, with Haniza Shaarani emerging as the tournament's top scorer. The club has also claimed success in previous editions of the Liga Bolasepak Rakyat Wanita (LBRW) and the Piala Tun Sharifah Rodziah (PTSR), securing a championship title in 2018 and finishing as runners-up in 2019.

National League Participation
