Robby Darwis (born 30 October 1964 in Bandung, West Java) is an Indonesian former football player and coach. He is the current technical director for PSKC Cimahi, and one of Persib Bandung football stars of his generation.

Playing career

Darwis started his career as a teenage at local football club Arjuna and SSB Capella. Initially, he played as a forward or attacking midfielder. He took part in a selection by Persib in 1979 as held by Polish coach Marek Janota where he passed. ^[1] He was first included in the senior squad in 1983.

In 1989, he was transferred to Malaysian club Kelantan FA. At the club, he was sent off in his debut match against Singapore FA on 11 July 1989 for allegedly kicking the referee. As a result, he was suspended for 3 months, and was unable to represent Indonesia at 1989 Southeast Asian Games. After reviewing, the suspension was lifted and he returned to Persib on 2 December upon being released by Kelantan. ^[2]

He brought a lot of success to Persib during his time at the club, with 3 Perserikatan titles and the inaugural Liga Indonesia 1994-95. He also played in 1995 Asian Club Championship for Persib. In the first round, Persib defeated Bangkok Bank F.C. in 2-1 aggregate and Pasay on both second round matches. The team advanced to quarterfinals but finished at the bottom of the East Asia group stage. ^[3] Later, he would play for Persikab Bandung and retired there. ^{[4] [5]}

He was part of Indonesia national football team that won gold medals at 1987 and 1991 SEA Games. ^[6] He captained the team between 1993 and 1997 and would go on representing the country until 1997 SEA Games which the country hosted and won silver medal. ^{[7] [8]}

He returned to becoming head coach in 2015 when he was recruited by PSB Bogor in Liga Nusantara. ^[11] Later, he moved to PSKC Cimahi in 2017.
