History

The origin of Pro Duta FC (PDFC) in its development to become one of Indonesia's football clubs, can be traced back to one of several Persib Bandung internal amateur footbal clubs under the management of Maung Bandung. At the time, Pro Duta was still called "Bandung Putra". As part of the 1986 management improvement efforts, "Bandung Putra" was renamed as "Pro". A year afterwards, "Pro" won the internal Persib Division I competition. In 1987, "Pro" was again renamed "Pro Duta" in preparations to take part in the professional competition organized by PSSI. Since turning into a professional club, "Pro Duta" decided to sever its dependence on(Persib Bandung). The club then began its tour in the 3rd Amateur Division of Liga Indonesia, West Java Zone. In the 2008/2009 playing season, "Pro Duta" competed in the 1st Amateur Division, while in the subsequent year, the club was promoted into the Premier Division 2009/2010. With its promotion into the Liga Divisi Utama, the ownership of Pro Duta was taken over by Mr. Sihar Sitorus in 2009. Under the management of PT. Produta FC, the team and management went through a complete re-shuffle. Pro Duta FC then performed in its first professional competition with its new homebase at Stadion Maguwoharjo (Maguwoharjo stadium), Sleman-Yogyakarta. With young players leading the squad, the club – its logo being the Pegasus Horse – proved successful in defending its position within the Liga Divisi Utama of that season. While gearing up for the second season of the Premier Division 2010/2011, Pro Duta FC received sponsorship from a mining company. In accordance with the sponsor's partnership agreement, the club changed its competition name to "Pro Titan FC" and made stadium Stadion Teladan Medan (Teladan Medan stadium) as its home-base. In the third season of the Premier Division League 2011/2012, Pro Duta's motor were still its young players with a mean age of 22 years. Yet another relocation of the club's home-base, this time to Stadion Baharoeddin Siregar (Baharoeddin Siregar stadium), Lubuk Pakam-Deli Serdang was no hindrance to the team's determination to take Pro Duta FC to the highest level of the national football scene. The club's bold efforts to reach the highest dreams with great confidence transformed Pro Duta FC to become the First Group/West Area winning team and the entitlement to be promoted to the Indonesian Premier League 2013.
