Pamir Kabul Football Club is a football team based in Kabul, Afghanistan.[1]

History

The team was founded in 1968–1969.[2]

Pamir Club was one of the dominant clubs in Afghan domestic football in the 1970s. In 1976, the team won the Kabul A Division Football League defeating Kabura Club in the final.[3] In June 1977, the team played against the visiting Sattar Club of Pakistan in one of the four matches of the visitors in Kabul, defeating them by 2–1.[4]

Following the fall of the Taliban, Pamir resumed competitive football in Kabul. In January 2002, the club competed in the Hindu Kush League and received footballs and a full set of kits donated by BBC Radio 5 Live. The BBC reported that the team faced severe shortages of sporting equipment after decades of conflict.[5][6]

In 2007, the team entered the inaugural Kabul Premier League as one of the 12 top teams from the Kabul A Division Football League. After relegation, the team reached the final of the Kabul A Division Football League in 2013, and earned promotion to the 2014 Kabul Premier League.[7][8]
