Chiang Mai Football Club (Thai สโมสรฟุตบอลจังหวัดเชียงใหม่) is a Thai professional football club based in Chiang Mai Province, a city located in the very northern part of Thailand. The club currently plays in Thai Division 1 League.

Based on the website Thai-Fussball.com, Chiang Mai FC was founded in 1999 and played its trade in Thailands Pro-League until 2007. At that time the club colours were pink and the heraldic animal was an elephant.

In 2009 they club got restructured. New badge, new person in charge and with Lanna Tigers they even got a new nickname. The club finished 9th in the Regional League Division North just to win it a year later. It qualified Chiang Mai FC to participate in the play-offs which they mastered successfully.

But the first ever adventure in the Thai Division One in 2011 lasted only one season. It took the side two years to bounce back.

However, a second period was on the limbo when club president Udonpan Jantaraviroj announced to withdraw the team and his support form the second tier. After lengthy discussions and fan protests he agreed to move on.
