A JOHOR FOOTBALL REVOLUTION

Founded in 1972 as PKENJ FC, the club renamed as Johor FC in 1996, before adopting its
current name in 2013. Johor Darul Ta'zim is owned by Tunku Ismail Idris, the Crown Prince of
Johor.

The seismic rebuilding of football in Johor has seen Johor Darul Ta’zim FC (JDT) become a
reputable force in the football circle, all since HRH Tunku Mahkota Ismail Ibni Sultan Ibrahim,
Crown Prince of Johor took charge ahead of the 2013 season.

Today, JDT are one of Southeast Asia’s most ambitious clubs with facilities that rival some of
the best teams in the continent and success has been ever-flowing. JDT have won a record nine
straight Malaysia Super League titles, eight Charity Shield Cups, three FA Cups, three Malaysia
Cups and the club’s crowning moment in Asia, the 2015 AFC Cup – a first for a club from East
Asia, let alone Southeast Asia.

The completion of the new state-of-the-art Sultan Ibrahim Stadium, AFC Champions League
football and plans of an even more advanced training ground elevates the club to an even higher
standing. Adopting a hands-on approach in operating the club, HRH Tunku Mahkota Ismail has
been in the centre of the tremendous growth the JDT brand has enjoyed on and off the pitch.
