Hizbul Wathan Football Club is a professional Indonesian football team based in Sidoarjo Regency, East Java. They compete in the fourth tier of Indonesian league, Liga 4.

History

[edit]

Semeru FC is an amalgamation of other Lumajang regional teams. In 2017, hoping to promote regional football and build community pride,[4] regent ASAT Malik met with local football clubs including Persigo Gorontalo, based in Gorontalo to discuss a merger. The owner of Persigo Gorontalo, Ngateman, and ASAT Malik finalized a merger agreement and renamed Persigo Gorontalo to Semeru FC.

In forming Semeru FC, local Lumajang footballers hope to raise the standard of their play and break into national football. As of 2017 the team was in the Liga Nusantara level.

On 25 February 2020, the East Java Regional Leadership of Muhammadiyah (East Java PWM) confirmed that it has acquired Semeru FC, one of the participating Liga 2 football clubs. They acquired Semeru FC who this season competed in Liga 2. In addition, they will compete under the name PS Hizbul Wathan (named after its scouting wing) and headquartered at the Gelora Delta Stadium. Chairman of the East Java PWM M. Saad Ibrahim said that the acquisition was carried out because Muhammadiyah wanted to "preach through football". Despite being a new territory, the organization wanted to instill the values of Islam, nationality and humanity through football; citing its cadres like Soeratin Sosrosoegondo that used to be the founders of the Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI).[5][6]
