History

Aizawl FC was founded in 1984 in Aizawl,[14][15] the capital of the Indian state of Mizoram and have since participated in various amateur tournaments.[16] The club is affiliated with Mizoram Football Association (MFA) and is under the ownership of Robert Romawia Royte.[17][18]

In January 2012, they were officially certified by the All India Football Federation (AIFF) to participate in the I-League 2nd Division, then second tier of football league system in the country.[19] This move would begin a new chapter for Aizawl Football Club as they would officially become professional.[20]

Due to COVID-19 pandemic, 2020–21 I-League season's format was shortened.[38] All teams faced each other once in the first leg of the league.[39][40][41] The league was then divided into two different groups. According to points table from first leg, top six teams faced each other once again in the Championship stage. The rest of the five teams played against each other in the Relegation stage.[42] Aizawl ended the first phase of the season at the 7th position, with 15 points from 10 games. They couldn't qualify for the Championship stage, and hence were put in the Relegation stage, in which they topped the stage with 24 points from 14 games. For the 2021–22 I-League, Aizawl roped in Yan Law as their new head coach and finished the season on eighth place in league table.[43] In April 2023, the club earned qualification to 2023 Indian Super Cup after winning play-off matches.[44][45] Aizawl began group stage campaign on 9 April, against Hyderabad, in which Belarusian Ivan Veras scored a goal in their 2–1 defeat.[46][47]
