Bandung FC[1][2][3][4][5] is an Indonesian football club based in Bandung, West Java. The team played in Liga Primer Indonesia until the competition finally became defunct in 2011.

When they signed midfielder Lee Hendrie on a free transfer on 27 January 2011, Bandung became the first Indonesian club to obtain an Englishman or a player with experience of the Premier League.[6] Despite being on a two-year contract, his spell was brief and by October 2011 he was playing for English non-league side Daventry Town.[7]
