'''Bali United Football Club''' ({{langx|id|klub sepak bola Bali United}}; {{langx|ban|ᬓ᭄ᬮᬸᬩ᭄ᬲᬾᬧᬓ᭄ᬩᭀᬮᬩᬮᬶᬉᬦᬶᬢᬾᬤ᭄}}, ''æklub’ sépak bola Bali United'') is an Indonesian professional [[association football|football]] club based in [[Gianyar Regency|Gianyar]], [[Bali]]. It competes in [[Super League (Indonesia)|Super League]], the top tier of [[Indonesian football league system|Indonesian football]]. The club was founded in 2015 following the relocation and rebranding of [[Putra Samarinda F.C.|Putra Samarinda]], adopting its current name, badge, and colours. Bali United won its first top-tier Indonesian league title in 2019 and secured a second title in 2021–22.

The team plays home matches at [[Kapten I Wayan Dipta Stadium]] and operates a professional training facility and youth academy. Bali United became the first professional football club in Indonesia and Southeast Asia to be publicly traded, offering shares through the [[Indonesia Stock Exchange]] in June 2019.<ref>{{cite web |title=DENGAN KODE SAHAM "BOLA", BALI UNITED RESMI MENJADI KLUB SEPAKBOLA PERTAMA DI ASIA TENGGARA YANG GO PUBLIC |url=http://www.baliutd.com/news/media-news/dengan-kode-saham-bola-bali-united-resmi-menjadi-klub-sepakbola-pertama-di-asia-tenggara-yang-go-public/ |website=Bali United Official Website |access-date=17 June 2019 |date=17 June 2019}}</ref> The club has also competed in continental competitions such as the [[AFC Champions League]] and [[AFC Cup]].

== Origins == After the [[2014 Indonesia Super League]] season, [[Putra Samarinda F.C.|Putra Samarinda]] owner Harbiansyah Hanafiah sold the club to businessman Pieter Tanuri. Tanuri subsequently relocated the club to [[Gianyar Regency|Gianyar]], [[Bali]], citing the absence of a Balinese representative in Indonesia’s top-flight football following the dissolution of [[Bali Devata F.C.|Bali Devata]] in 2013 after the [[Indonesian Premier League]] was discontinued.

Gianyar was chosen due to the availability of the [[Kapten I Wayan Dipta Stadium]], previously used by Bali Devata, and its central location on the island, which was considered more accessible to local supporters than coastal tourist areas. Tanuri aimed to establish the club as a symbol of Balinese pride and to attract supporters from across the island. As part of this vision, the club underwent a complete rebranding and was renamed Bali United Pusam Football Club, adopting new colours and a crest reflecting Balinese identity.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tribunnews.com/superball/2014/12/17/putra-samarinda-berubah-jadi-bali-united-pusam|title=Putra Samarinda Berubah Jadi Bali United Pusam|access-date= 27 February 2016}}</ref>

== History == === Early years === Bali United's first major move was the appointment of [[Indra Sjafri]] as manager.<ref name="indrasjafri_in" /> Under the former [[Indonesia national under-19 football team|Indonesia national under-19]] head coach, the club focused on developing young talent, bringing several U-19 national team players into the top flight.<ref>{{cite web |title=Masih Berumur Tiga Tahun, Bali United Menjelma Jadi Klub Paling Profesional Di Indonesia? |url=https://www.sepakbola.com/2018/02/masih-berumur-tiga-tahun-bali-united-klub-paling-profesional-di-indonesia/ |website=SepakBola.com - Berita Bola, Livescore, Jadwal & Cuplikan GOL! |date=15 February 2018 |access-date=16 March 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180215151848/http://www.sepakbola.com/2018/02/masih-berumur-tiga-tahun-bali-united-klub-paling-profesional-di-indonesia/ |archive-date=15 February 2018 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

The club made its debut in the [[2015 Indonesia Super League]], playing its first match on 4 April 2015, a 2–1 away loss to [[Perseru Serui|Perseru]], with Lerby Eliandry scoring the team's first competitive goal.<ref>{{cite web |title=Perseru Rusak Debut Indra Sjafri Bersama Bali United |url=https://www.liputan6.com/bola/read/2207617/perseru-rusak-debut-indra-sjafri-bersama-bali-united |website=liputan6.com |language=id |date=4 April 2015}}</ref> However, the season was discontinued after only two matches due to a conflict between the Indonesian government and [[Football Association of Indonesia|PSSI]], which ultimately led to a [[FIFA]] suspension of Indonesian football.<ref>{{cite web|title=Force Majeur, PSSI Hentikan Semua Kompetisi|url=http://www.ligaindonesia.co.id/index.php/read/isl/Force-Majeur-PSSI-Hentikan-Semua-Kompetisi-8267#.VUVA5fntmko|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150504225344/http://ligaindonesia.co.id/index.php/read/isl/Force-Majeur-PSSI-Hentikan-Semua-Kompetisi-8267#.VUVA5fntmko|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 May 2015|accessdate=2 May 2015|language=Indonesian}}</ref>

Bali United completed their first full season in the [[2016 Indonesia Soccer Championship A]], a temporary league organized to replace the suspended Indonesia Super League. The club finished 12th out of 18 teams, a respectable result for a newly relocated and rebranded club.<ref>{{cite web |title=BALI UNITED DITAHAN IMBANG PERSIJA DI PERTANDINGAN TERAKHIR TSC 2016 |url=http://www.baliutd.com/news/media-news/bali-united-ditahan-imbang-persija-di-pertandingan-terakhir-tsc-2016/?ids= |website=Bali United Official Website |date=19 December 2016}}</ref>

In 2017, during the inaugural season of Liga 1, Bali United struggled in their first two matches under head coach [[Hans-Peter Schaller]], who was subsequently sacked.<ref name="schaller_out" /> [[Widodo Cahyono Putro]], former Indonesian national team player, took over and led the team to compete for the title. Bali United became the most productive team in the league but finished as runner-up, losing out to [[Bhayangkara F.C.|Bhayangkara]] due to head-to-head tiebreaker regulations.<ref>{{cite web |title=AKHIRI KOMPETISI DI PERINGKAT KEDUA, INI DIA BEBERAPA FAKTA TENTANG KIPRAH BALI UNITED MUSIM INI |url=http://www.baliutd.com/news/media-news/akhiri-kompetisi-di-peringkat-kedua-ini-dia-beberapa-fakta-tentang-kiprah-bali-united-musim-ini/?ids= |website=Bali United Official Website |date=14 November 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=3 Kontroversi yang Mengiringi Persaingan Juara Liga 1 2017 |url=https://www.bola.com/indonesia/read/3155931/3-kontroversi-yang-mengiringi-persaingan-juara-liga-1-2017 |website=bola.com |language=id |date=9 November 2017}}</ref>

On 29 November 2018, Widodo Cahyono Putro resigned as head coach.<ref name="widodo_out" /> The club cited personal reasons related to his coaching career, including preparation for the AFC A Pro coaching license, while media reports also mentioned contract clauses and internal issues as contributing factors.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Abdurahman |first1=Hendi |title=Widodo Cahyono Putro Resmi Mundur sebagai Pelatih Bali United |url=https://tirto.id/widodo-cahyono-putro-resmi-mundur-sebagai-pelatih-bali-united-daAh |website=tirto.id |language=id}}</ref>

=== Stefano Cugurra era (2019–2025) === Bali United reacted to the end of the previous era by appointing former [[Persija Jakarta|Persija]] head coach [[Stefano Cugurra]] ahead of the [[2019 Liga 1 (Indonesia)|2019 Liga 1]] season.<ref name="teco_in" /> In his first campaign, Bali United secured the Liga 1 title on 2 December 2019 after a draw between [[Borneo F.C.|Borneo]] and [[PSM Makassar|PSM]] confirmed their position as champions.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Media |first1=Kompas Cyber |title=PSM Makassar Vs Borneo FC Imbang, Bali United Juara Liga 1 2019 Halaman all |url=https://bola.kompas.com/read/2019/12/02/17322878/psm-makassar-vs-borneo-fc-imbang-bali-united-juara-liga-1-2019?page=all |website=KOMPAS.com |language=id}}</ref> The club's strong performance under Cugurra also qualified them for the AFC Champions League for the second time in their history. The team set a record for being the fastest to win the Liga 1 title since the competition adopted its current name, as well as achieving the largest points gap over the runner-up.<ref>{{cite web |title=Bali United Kunci Juara Liga 1: Tercepat dalam Tiga Tahun Terakhir |url=https://kumparan.com/kumparanbola/bali-united-kunci-juara-liga-1-tercepat-dalam-tiga-tahun-terakhir-1sMoruUk9XI/full |website=kumparan |language=id-ID}}</ref>

After the 2019 season, the [[2020 Liga 1 (Indonesia)|2020 Liga 1]] campaign was abandoned due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia]], with competitive matches halted after only a few rounds.<ref>{{cite web |title=Kompetisi Liga 1 dan 2 Musim 2020-2021 Resmi Dibatalkan |url=https://www.pssi.org/news/kompetisi-liga-1-dan-2-musim-2020-2021-resmi-dibatalkan |website=PSSI - Football Association of Indonesia |access-date=20 January 2021 |language=id-ID |archive-date=27 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210127200121/https://www.pssi.org/news/kompetisi-liga-1-dan-2-musim-2020-2021-resmi-dibatalkan |url-status=live }}</ref> When the league resumed with a centralized format for the [[2021–22 Liga 1 (Indonesia)|2021–22]] season, Bali United regained momentum and went on to win their second Liga 1 title under Cugurra, finishing with the highest points total in the competition.<ref>{{cite web |title=Fakta Menarik Gelar Juara Bali United di BRI Liga 1 2021/2022: Rekor Spesial Teco dan Spaso |url=https://www.bola.com/indonesia/read/4926686/fakta-menarik-gelar-juara-bali-united-di-bri-liga-1-20212022-rekor-spesial-teco-dan-spaso |website=bola.com |language=id |date=1 April 2022}}</ref> This marked the first time a club had achieved back‑to‑back Liga 1 championships in Indonesia, although the 2020 season was not completed.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://bolanas.bolasport.com/read/493204577/kalah-telak-dari-persebaya-bali-united-tetap-back-to-back-juara-liga-1|title=Kalah Telak dari Persebaya, Bali United Tetap Back to Back Juara Liga 1|last=Nugroho|first=Nungki|date=25 March 2022|work=Bolanas.com|language=id}}</ref>

During the [[2024–25 Liga 1 (Indonesia)|2024–25 Liga 1]] season, Bali United faced challenges, including multiple defeats and injuries, and spent much of the campaign outside the top positions.

=== Post-Cugurra era (2025–present) === After the conclusion of the 2024–25 Liga 1 season, long‑time head coach Stefano Cugurra left Bali United following six seasons in charge, during which he led the club to two Liga 1 titles in 2019 and the 2021–22 season.<ref>{{cite web |title=Berita Terkini Bali United FC {{!}} STEFANO CUGURRA: SEJARAH BACK TO BACK CHAMPIONS HINGGA SOAL PEMAIN MUDA, DARI KRITIK JADI PEMANTIK! |url=https://www.baliutd.com/news/stefano-cugurra-sejarah-back-to-back-champions-hingga-soal-pemain-muda-dari-kritik-jadi-pemantik |website=www.baliutd.com |language=id}}</ref> His departure marked the end of one of the club’s most successful managerial periods.

On 26 May 2025, Bali United officially appointed [[Johnny Jansen]], a Dutch coach previously involved in European football, as the club's new head coach ahead of the [[2025–26 Super League (Indonesia)|2025–26 Super League]] season.<ref name="jansen_in" /> The appointment represented a strategic shift toward a new footballing philosophy and broader team restructuring following the club's eighth‑place finish in the 2024–25 Liga 1 campaign.<ref>{{cite web |title=Klasemen Akhir Liga 1 2024/2025: PSS dan Barito Degradasi |url=https://www.cnnindonesia.com/olahraga/20250524204122-142-1232820/klasemen-akhir-liga-1-2024-2025-pss-dan-barito-degradasi |website=olahraga |language=id-ID}}</ref>

== Colours and badge == Bali United traditionally play in red home kits, white away kits, and black third kits, inspired by the sacred [[Balinese Hinduism]] tri-colour, ''Tridatu'', which gave rise to the club's nickname, ''Serdadu Tridatu'' (Tridatu Warriors).<ref>{{cite web|title=BALI UNITED PERKENALKAN PEMAIN DAN JERSEY TERBARU UNTUK TSC 2016 |url=http://www.baliutd.com/news/bali-united-perkenalkan-pemain-dan-jersey-terbaru-untuk-tsc-2016 |accessdate=17 May 2016 |ref=baliutd.com |language=Indonesian |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160531105149/http://www.baliutd.com/news/bali-united-perkenalkan-pemain-dan-jersey-terbaru-untuk-tsc-2016 |archivedate=31 May 2016 |url-status=dead |df= }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Julukan Pasukan Tridatu untuk Bali United Mencuat dari Suporter|url=http://bali.tribunnews.com/2014/12/29/julukan-pasukan-tridatu-untuk-bali-united-mencuat-dari-suporter|accessdate=25 February 2016|language=Indonesian}}</ref>
