three games for the third time and conceded 23 goals, their worst defensive performance to date and did not progress. Unlike the previous year's tournament however, they were able to score two consolation goals through [[Chencho Gyeltshen]] and [[Tshering Wangdi]] in an 2-11 loss to Dordoi Bishkek.
'''Yeedzin Football Club''' was a football club from [[Thimphu]], [[Bhutan]]. Founded in 2002, they were promoted from the B-Division in 2002 to the A-Division, where they have remained ever since. They won their first A-Division title in 2008 and have won a total of four A-Division championships. In addition they have also qualified for the National League in 2012 and 2013, winning the inaugural national competition in 2012. They have been Bhutan's representative in the [[AFC President's Cup]] on four occasions, a feat matched only by [[Transport United]] in Bhutan. Their domestic success has not been replicated at a continental level; in each of their four appearances in the President's cup they have lost all three of their group games and have only managed to score a total of five goals in their twelve matches. It is one of the richer clubs in Bhutan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kuenselonline.com/local-clubs-face-uphill-task-to-stay-afloat/#.U60_R7EXgTk|title=Local clubs face uphill task to stay afloat|last=Dorji|first=Tshering|date=23 November 2013|website=http://www.kuenselonline.com|publisher=Kuensel Online|accessdate=27 June 2014}}</ref>

Despite beating [[Nangpa F.C.|Nangpa]] 12-0 in the quarter finals and Choden 4-1 in the semi-finals, they lost 0-1 to Druk Star in the final as the mirrored what Yeedzin had achieved the previous season.<ref name="RSSSF7" />

2009 was also the first season that Yeedzin represented Bhutan in continental competition, their victory in the previous season's league competition meaning that they were awarded Bhutan's berth in the [[2009 AFC President's Cup]]. They were drawn in Group C for the Group Stage, along with [[FC Dordoi Bishkek|Dordoi-Dynamo Naryn]] of Kyrgyzstan, [[Kanbawza F.C.|Kanbawza]] of Burma and [[Phnom Penh Crown]] of Cambodia. They travelled to [[Bishkek]], where all the group games were played, but were beaten in all three games, conceding fourteen goals and scoring only three through [[Pema Chophel]], [[Jigme Tenzin]] and [[Tschedupla]], and did not progress.

2013 - 2014

Yeedzin were able to recover their A-Division title in the 2013 season, qualifying for the second National League competition in first place following an unbeaten performance, dropping points only in a 0–0 draw with eventual runners-up Thimphu City,[4] scoring 27 goals in their eight matches, including a 10–2 victory over Druk United.[4] They were also unbeaten in the National League as well, the first time a side had gone through both competitions without losing.[4] Although, with five draws to their name in the national league they were only able to finish in second place behind Ugyen Academy and so missed out on Bhutan's place in the AFC President's Cup for the first time in three years.[4] However, since they had won the previous year's National League competition, they did compete as Bhutan's entrant for the third consecutive year in the 2013 AFC President's Cup.[5]

They were again drawn in Group B for the group stage of matches along with Dordoi Bishkek, for the second year in a row, Global from the Philippines and KRL from Pakistan.[6] They travelled to Cebu City in the Philippines, where all the Group B matches were to be played, but for the fourth time were unable to gain any points, losing all three games and, for the second time in their for appearances, were unable to score a goal and did not progress from the group.[7] The team was dissolved in 2014 after the worst performance ever in Thimphu League, together with financial issues. Formal successor is renamed into Druk Yul FC, with all the glory and former players gone.

Report

2014 saw the worst performance in the A-Division by Yeedzin in their history.[3] With only three wins and two draws from their twelve matches, they finished in sixth place and failed to qualify for the National League for the first time.[3] In addition, since they lost the National League title to Ugyen Academy the previous season, they did not participate in the final edition of the President's Cup.[8]
