Rangdajied United Football Club (formerly known as Ar-Hima) is an Indian professional football club based in Mawngap-Mawphlang, in the south-west of Shillong, East Khasi Hills, Meghalaya. The club was founded in 1987, and participated in the I-League 2nd Division. They won the league in the 2012–13 season.
Rangdajied was in the then top tier I-league during the 2013–14 season. The club consecutively participates in the Shillong Premier League, the top tier state football league in Meghalaya.
Rangdajied United was founded in 1987 as Ar-Hima. The club is headquartered in Mawngap-Mawphlang, south-west Shillong. Rangdajied United has participated in various editions of the Shillong Premier League and enjoyed massive rivalries with their fellow Shillong based clubs Shillong Lajong and Royal Wahingdoh. In September 2012, the club reached semi-finals of Bordoloi Trophy. The club has participated in the 2013 I-League 2nd Division and qualified for the main round. Having won the 2013 I-League 2nd Division final round held in Bangalore, Rangdajied United earned qualification to I-League. On 20 November 2013, Rangdajied agreed the signings of India national team stars Gouramangi Singh, Subrata Pal, Sandesh Jhingan, Manandeep Singh, and Tomba Singh, and competed in the 2013–14 season. They ended their league campaign with 25 points in 24 matches, securing eleventh position in league table, but made headlines by defeating table toppers Bengaluru 3–2 at home. In the following season Rangdajied was evicted from I-League for not fulfilling the Asian Football Confederation's club licensing criteria.
After clinching the 2013 edition of Shillong Premier League, Rangdajied finished as runners-up in 2016 season. In 2015–16 season, the club was managed by Khlain Pyrkhat Syiemlieh, who cleared the AFC A licence at that time. Rangdajied then became a regular participant in Meghalaya State League, formed in 2017. Later in 2019 season, they again achieved runners-up position, gaining 22 points in 12 matches. The club finished as runners-up in second edition of the Meghalaya State League.
The club's new era began with the former India international Eugeneson Lyngdoh, who became club president in 2021 and succeeded his father Syntar Klas Sunn at the post. In June 2023, Rangdajied clinched their first ever Meghalaya State League title, defeating Khliehmawlieh YC 1–0 in final. In November of the same year, the club returned to the nationwide league, joining newly formed I-League 3. Later on 10 November, club CEO Andrew Suting officially announced Meghalaya Tourism as main sponsor, stating, "The support from Meghalaya Tourism will undoubtedly contribute to the growth and development of the football club while simultaneously drawing attention to the treasures of the state."
In August 2023, Rangdajied United gained I-League 3 spot to compete in the inaugural edition. Before the league starts, the club roped in Subir Dey as head coach, former India international Aiborlang Khongjee as technical director and Aibanjop Shadap as the assistant coach while team players came from the Khasi-Jaintia Hills. They began the league campaign on 13 November in Goa, beating Millat FC 5–0 in Group C. In August 2024, the club was welcomed by the Durand Cup Organising Committee and included in the group stages of the 133rd edition of the tournament, replacing Indian Super League outfit Hyderabad. Rangdajied began the competition campaign with a 4–3 defeat to FC Goa in Shillong on 5 August. In the next match, Rangdajied played against arch-rival Shillong Lajong at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, that went on to a 2–0 defeat resulting club's failure to move to the knock-out stage.
