History
Friends Club was established in 1972 as a children's club with a reading-room facility in Kopundol. After a couple of years of its establishment, the club diversified its social activities with a motto of "better health through sports among the people of Kopundol." Eventually Friends Club established itself as a well reputed local sports club and for next several years, it remained only as a football club that every now and then organized certain social activities like reading room facility, blood donation, bicycle rally against drugs abuse etc. It was since late eighties that the Club started implementing various training activities for women and children. It also started a health clinic and Pathology laboratory which eventually, became very popular among the people of Kopundol and surrounding community. The club has come a long way since 1972 until now from a sports club to a sport-cum social club.
In 1996, the club toured to Bangladesh and took part in Bangabandhu Cup.
