Life Football Club is a professional football club based in Sihanoukville, Preah Sihanouk province, Cambodia. It plays in the Cambodian Premier League in 2024–25 season following promotion from the second division.

History

[edit]

In 2023, Life FC became the first Sihanoukville club to play in Cambodian League 2 after being confirmed by the Cambodian Premier League company.[1] The team played its first league game on 16 September 2023, drawing 1–1 against Angkor City.[2] Life was crowned champion of the second division on 31 March 2024, after drawing 4–4 against 2nd place Ministry of Interior FA, though tied on point, it had a better head-to-head record.[3] After a tight season, both Life and the Ministry of Interior got promoted to play in Cambodian Premier League for the 2024–25 season, with Life becoming the first club from Preah Sihanouk to play in the country's top football division.[4]
