History

Three Star Club's football journey started in the D-Division League. The club managed to reach the Martyr's Memorial A-Division League in 2039 BS. Since then, Three Star Club has produced a steady stream of qualitative performance in national and international tournaments. Three Star Club has won Martyr's Memorial A-Division League three times and the National League one time. It is the first nepali club to participate in the AFC President's Cup in 2005.

2016–17 controversy

Being the champions of 2015 Nepal National League, Three Star Club was eligible to play in the 2017 AFC Cup qualifying round taking place in Ulaanbaatar. [1] The club topped its group for which they were qualified to play in the 2017 AFC Cup. However, the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) failed to register Three Star Club by the competition deadline, so they were not able to continue competing. [2] In December 2016, the club therefore demanded a compensation payment of NPR 60 Million. [3] On 10 October 2017, the ANFA and Three Star Club agreed on a settlement payment of NPR 15 million in three installments. The club would then return to competitive football, in which it had not participated since the scandal began. ANFA pledged to arrange three international competitions in which Three Star club would be able to participate. [4]
