Early career

According to Soram Anganba he never was interested in football till 2002 and that it was his dad who got him into the game. In 2004 Soram played for NCC Imphal in the Subroto Cup. He was then selected into the Tata Football Academy in 2007 but could not get adjusted so he decided to move to the IFA Academy in West Bengal which is run by the Indian Football Association. He then went back to Imphal to play for Thau FC in the Manipur A-Division. He also played for the Manipur football team at the BC Roy Trophy (an under-19 tournament) in 2009 and 2010. He then joined Pune as a youth player till 2011.

Career

Shillong Lajong

In the summer of 2011 Anganba signed for newly promoted I-League club Shillong Lajong. He made his professional debut for Shillong Lajong in the I-League against his former club Pune on 22 October 2011. The match ended 0–0. On 17 December 2011 Anganba was sent off for a tackle on Lalrindika Ralte against Churchill Brothers in the I-League which led to a penalty for Churchill Brothers and in the end, a 6–0 defeat for Shillong Lajong at the hands of Churchill Brothers.

Pailan Arrows

On 12 August 2012 it was announced that Soram would join fellow I-League side Pailan Arrows. He then made his debut for the club on 19 September 2012 against Dempo during the 2012 Indian Federation Cup in which he managed to keep a clean-sheet till the 60th minute when Dempo scored through Clifford Miranda; in the end Pailan drew the match 1–1. He kept his first clean-sheet in his Pailan Arrows career on 28 October 2012 against Shillong Lajong, his former club, in a match that ended 0–0. He then helped Pailan keep another clean-sheet in the next match against United Sikkim in another match that ended 0–0.

On 29 August 2013 it was confirmed that Pailan Arrows would be disbanded by the All India Football Federation after the club could not find a sponsor, thus meaning that Anganba became a free agent.
