The team's home stadium was the [Stadium MBPJ](/source/Petaling_Jaya_Stadium), in [Petaling Jaya](/source/Petaling_Jaya). The club as it exists today was the result of a merger of '''UPB Football Club''' and '''MyTeam''' (a football team created through the Malaysian [reality TV](/source/reality_television) show ''[MyTeam](/source/MyTeam_(Malaysian_TV_series))'') prior to the 2006–07 Malaysian football season. ==History== Launched in 2006, the [TV3](/source/TV3_(Malaysia)) reality TV series ''[MyTeam](/source/MyTeam)'' brought together a squad of soccer players from around Malaysia with no professional playing experience known as "[MyTeam](/source/MyTeam)". The show followed the team as it was selected through trials and then trained and coached by the former Malaysian international footballer [Shebby Singh](/source/Shebby_Singh), before taking on the [Malaysia national football team](/source/Malaysia_national_football_team) in an exhibition match. [MyTeam](/source/MyTeam) lost 2–1 to the national team in the exhibition game on 28 May 2006. The show generated considerable interest. [MyTeam](/source/MyTeam) was subsequently invited to join the [Malaysia Premier League](/source/Malaysia_Premier_League) for the 2006–07 season. UPB FC was an ailing football club sponsored by the Malaysian [United Plantations](/source/United_Plantations) Berhad (UPB) company, based in [Teluk Intan](/source/Teluk_Intan), [Perak](/source/Perak). (When it was first formed, the club had been known as '''Jenderata FC'''.) The club was poised to "go the way of the dinosaur" before the politician [Khairy Jamaluddin](/source/Khairy_Jamaluddin), who along with radio DJ [Jason Lo](/source/Jason_Lo) was the co-creator and [Executive Producer](/source/Executive_Producer) of the ''[MyTeam](/source/MyTeam)'' series, decided to take over the club and form a base for [MyTeam](/source/MyTeam) to become a professional competitive team. The name UPB-MyTeam FC was adopted upon UPB FC's management's request (however it has been speculated that the "UPB" will be dropped from the club's name at some point in the future). [Khairy Jamaluddin](/source/Khairy_Jamaluddin) and [Jason Lo](/source/Jason_Lo) became the club's [President](/source/President_(corporate_title)) and [Deputy President](/source/Deputy_President), and [Bojan Hodak](/source/Bojan_Hodak) of [Croatia](/source/Croatia) was hired to become the team's coach. UPB MyTeam FC finished the 2006–07 '''[Malaysia Premier League](/source/Malaysia_Premier_League)''' season as runners-up behind [PDRM FA](/source/PDRM_FA), and as a result were promoted to the [Malaysia Super League 2007-08](/source/Malaysia_Super_League_2007-08) season. A second season of the reality TV show, ''[MyTeam2](/source/MyTeam2)'', was broadcast in 2007 ([MyTeam2](/source/MyTeam2) took on the [Indonesian national football team](/source/Indonesian_national_football_team), losing 2–0). Three players from [MyTeam2](/source/MyTeam2) ([Muhamad Noor Hassan](/source/Muhamad_Noor_Hassan), [Mohan a/l R. Azmi](/source/Mohan_R._Azmi) and [Mohd Hisham Hashim](/source/Mohd_Hisham_Hashim)) have joined the UPB MyTeam FC squad for the 2007–08 [Malaysian Super League](/source/Malaysian_Super_League) season. UPB MyTeam FC held a trial on 1 and 2 November 2008 at Stadium Bukit Jalil to select 17 players for the 2008 President Cup. Unfortunately, after a period of financial struggle, the club was dissolved at the end of 2009 season.http://www.kosmo.com.my/kosmo/content.asp?y=2009&dt=0603&pub=Kosmo&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161103235726/http://www.kosmo.com.my/kosmo/content.asp?y=2009&dt=0603&pub=Kosmo&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm |date=3 November 2016 }} UPB-MyTeam tak bayar gajihttp://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2009&dt=0611&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161104014403/http://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2009&dt=0611&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm |date=4 November 2016 }} Nasib malang MyTeamhttp://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2009&dt=0707&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161104013514/http://ww1.utusan.com.my/utusan/info.asp?y=2009&dt=0707&pub=Utusan_Malaysia&sec=Sukan&pg=su_01.htm |date=4 November 2016 }} UPB-MyTeam tak boleh tarik diri Currently, the club management has decided rebuilt to the club with the same name and reported to join the [Selangor](/source/Selangor) [FAS State League](/source/FAS_State_League) in 2013. ==Honours== {| class="wikitable" |- !
