History

Foundation and early years (1963–1994)

Persipura's history is mysterious. The club's administrators cannot fully make sure that the club was founded in 1963, since there are also proof that suggests the club might have been founded in 1965, 1962, or even 1950.[2] Other than that, the administrators also cannot fully make sure Persipura's original name.

The early years were not filled with a lot of achievements. They only managed to win the Perserikatan First Division two times in 1979 and 1993. Other than that, they were runners-up in the 1980 Perserikatan season.[3] In the final match of that season which took place on 31 August at Senayan Stadium, they lost to Persiraja Banda Aceh 3–1. The goalscorers were Leo Kapisa on 15th minute for Persipura, Rustam Syafari ('45), and Bustamam ('55, '81) for Persiraja.

Modern era and recent history (1994–present)

Liga Indonesia (1994-2007)

Their first achievement in the modern era is by winning the 2005 Liga Indonesia Premier Division under coach Rahmad Darmawan.[3][4] PT. Persipura Papua was established to fulfill the requirement to compete in the Indonesia Super League.[5]

Indonesian Super League (2008-2015)

Persipura dominated Indonesian football under the control of Brazilian coach Jacksen F. Tiago by winning the Indonesia Super League (ISL, present: Liga 1) in 2009, 2011 and 2013.[6] They also managed to finish as runners-up three times during ISL era.[6] When PSSI was under FIFA sanctions, Indonesia Soccer Championship was held in 2016 which the team came out as champions.[7]

Liga 1 (2017-2022)

Persipura endured difficult challenges in 2021-22 season which saw two senior figures Boaz Solossa and Tinus Pae were fired from the club due to disciplinary reasons, but the latter was signed back in mid-season.[8] It also had its points deducted by 3 points after failing to appear in a match against Madura United F.C. on 21 February 2022.[9] Eventually, after disappointing results all season, Persipura was relegated which ended its 29-year spell on the highest level of Indonesian football league.[10] The team won its last match of the season against Persita Tangerang 3–0 on 31 March 2022, but it wasn't enough as PS Barito Putera, which had had 2 points advantage prior to the final matchday, drew 1–1 against Persib Bandung.[11] Barito finished above Persipura although having the same points due to head-to-head rule.[12]

On many occasions, Persipura played in AFC Cup and AFC Champions League, which began from 2010 AFC Champions League group stage. They drew against Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors, Changchun Yatai F.C. and Kashima Antlers, which saw them finished bottom of the group with only one win against Changchun Yatai.[13] In the following year, Persipura debuted in AFC Cup and advanced to the quarterfinals where they were beaten by an Iraqi team Erbil SC. In 2012, Persipura failed to qualify for 2012 AFC Champions League group stage, lost to Adelaide United FC in play-off.[14]

They also beat Kuwait SC in the quarter-final and advanced to the semifinals to play against Qadsia SC. However, Persipura was beaten by the Kuwaiti team 10–2 on aggregate.[15]

Persipura qualified for AFC Cup the third time in 2015 after finishing as runner-ups of 2014 Indonesia Super League. The group stage saw them finished first among Bengaluru FC, Maziya, and Warriors FC.[16] In Round of 16, they were about to play against Pahang FA, but the Malaysian team could not attend the match due to visa reasons and the match was deemed a walkover.[17] Eventually, Persipura's campaign ended when FIFA sanctioned PSSI which was intervened by Indonesian government, thus all football activities in Indonesia were suspended.[18]

Persipura was scheduled to compete in 2021 AFC Cup, but the competition itself was cancelled due to COVID-19 pandemic.[19]

Relegation
