History
Founded in 1973 by employees of Sadharan Bima Corporation as a recreational program, the club entered the country's First Division Football League, the Dhaka League, in 1977 as champions of the Dhaka Second Division League the previous year. In their maiden top-flight season, Sadharan Bima finished 9th among 17 clubs. The club dropped out from the top-flight with the introduction of a Premier Division in 1993[1] and remained in the First Division until further relegation in 1996 to the Second Division. Nonetheless, the club returned to the First Division in 1999 before again suffering relegation in 2003.[2] During the 2013–14 season, after a decade-long gap, the club returned to the top-flight of Dhaka, now known as the Senior Division League.[3]
