Garudayaksa Football Club, commonly known as Garudayaksa, is an Indonesian professional football club based in Bogor Regency, West Java. They will compete in the Super League next season, following promotion from the 2025–26 Championship.
History
[edit]The club was founded under the name of the Persatuan Sepakbola Indonesia Kota Cimahi (simply known as Persikoci) in 2001. Then over time the name was changed to PSKC Cimahi. They have long been in the lowest-tier of the Indonesian League, until 2016. They are being the only team that won the Liga 3 West Java zone for three consecutive seasons (2017 to 2019). PSKC Cimahi is also the club with the most number of finals in Liga 3 West Java (4 times).[3]
At the 2025 PSSI Congress, Garudayaksa Football Club was officially inaugurated as a member after acquiring PSKC Cimahi, and compete in the 2025–26 Championship season.[4]
Regarding the sale of the club and the change of identity, this is reinforced by the official statement of the mayor of the Cimahi government which stated that the team was no longer under their control, since the privatization.[5]
Garudayaksa Football Academy itself is founded by Prabowo Subianto, who at the time was serving as Minister of Defense. He inaugurated the academy in mid-December 2023.[6] Garudayaksa acquired the Championship club PSKC Cimahi, and was inaugurated by PSSI.[7] They have first competed in the 2025–26 Championship.[8] They were promoted to the Super League for the first time in their history from next season after beating Persikad Depok 3–1 in the final matchday of Group 1,[9] later they became champions after beating PSS Sleman 4–3 on penalties after a 2–2 draw in the final.[10] Management confirmed that Garudayaksa, which qualified for the Super League after just its inaugural season in the Indonesian League, is not a new club. They have been competing in the second-tier competition for the past few years under the name PSKC Cimahi, and despite the name change, they retain the same management team.[11]
