History
Ratachaburi earned back to back promotions from the regional leagues to the TPL.
2011 (DIV2 to DIV1)
In 2011 they won the Central-East Division before earning promotion to Division 1 after winning Group A of the Division 2 playoffs. In the following season, the Dragons flew through the first division winning the title on their way to the TPL.
2012–2013 (Runners-up of League Cup)
Whilst in Division 1, Ratchaburi made it to the Thai League Cup final where they lost 4–1 to Buriram United. The final was most remembered for the farcical circumstances that Ratchaburi faced as they didn't have any substitutes on the bench due to having several ineligible loanees from opponents Buriram United. Ratchaburi never stood a chance as Buriram won the final at a canter.
2014–Current
In 2016 the club moved to new ground called Mitr Phol Stadium that the stadium holds 13,000 people.
