Persib is considered as one of the biggest sports clubs in Indonesia with over 5,500,000 supporters in all of their supporter groups.

History

Early years

Persib was formed as Bandoeng Inlandsche Voetbal Bond (BIVB) in 1923. It was one of the nationalist struggle organizations at that time. Noted as the Chairman of BIVB was Mr. Syamsudin which was then forwarded to the son of the Indonesian heroines Dewi Sartika and the first Commissioner of West Java, R. Atot. BIVB utilize Tegallega field as their ground, and several home matches outside the city, like Yogyakarta and Jatinegara.

On 19 April 1930, along with VIJ Jakarta (now Persija Jakarta), SIVB (Persebaya Surabaya), MIVB (PPSM Magelang), MVB (Madiun Putra FC), VVB (Persis Solo), and PSM (PSIM Yogyakarta) participated in the formation of PSSI in a meeting held in Societeit Hadiprojo, Yogyakarta. BIVB was represented by Mr. Syamsuddin. A year later, the annual competition between cities / union was held. BIVB made it into the final league competition in 1933 despite losing VIJ Jakarta.

BIVB then disappeared and reappeared as two associations tinged with Indonesian nationalism, which are Bandung Indonesian Football Association Persatuan Sepak Bola Indonesia Bandung(PSIB) and the National Voetball Bond (NVB). On 14 March 1933, the two associations and several small teams agreed to perform fusion and a new association was born named Persib. They then chose Anwar St. Pamoentjak as Chairman. Other small clubs that joined the Persib were SIAP, Soenda, Singgalang, Diana, Sun, Ovu, RAN, HBOM, JOP, MALTA, and Merapi.

Persib went back to the league competition final in 1934, and lost again to VIJ Jakarta. Two years later, Persib went back in the final, but defeated by Persis Solo. In 1937, Persib finally won the competition in the final over Persis.

At the time, there was also an association football team led by the Dutch, Voetbal Bond Bandung & Omstreken (VBBO). They gained more supporters as they were playing in the city center, such as UNI field and Sidolig filed, while Persib played their game in the countryside, such as Tegallega and Ciroyom.

As time goes on, Persib gained more and more supporters due to the local players and became the only football team in Bandung. Clubs that had been ruled under VBBO like SIDOLIG and UNI joined Persib. VBBO (changed to PSBS as a strategy) then allowed Persib to use several stadiums inside the city, such as the UNI Field, Sidolig Field (now Persib Stadium), and Sparta Field (now Siliwangi Stadium).

Japanese era

When Indonesia fell to the Japanese side, all of Indonesia's football organizations and activities were banned and discontinued. The Japanese colonial government then set up a new name for Persib that houses the sports events, which was Rengo Kai Tai Iku (連合甲斐泰郁 (Rengō Kai Tai Iku)).

Physical revolution era

In the Physical Revolution era after Indonesia's independence, Persib re-showed their existence. But due to circumstances Persib were scattered in different cities, such as in Tasikmalaya, Sumedang, and Yogyakarta due to the Dutch military aggression.

In 1948, Persib was reformed in Bandung. VBBO attempted to rebirth, but failed as Persib that was part of the national struggle's power energetically sought to thwart these efforts. During the NICA occupation, Persib sent several people, among others are doctor Musa, H. Alexa, Rd. Sugeng and the Chairman Munadi.

Persib's struggle was successful and they stood still as the football team that continues to grow. In the period 1953-1957, Persib had a secretariat in Cilentah, which was built by the mayor of Bandung R. Enoch. Before the end of R. Soendoro leadership, Persib managed to build a secretariat that until now stood on Jalan Gurame.

Golden era

At the time, Persib's reputation as one of the Perserikatan league competition team began. During Perserikatan, Persib had been crowned as champions for four times, namely in 1961, 1986, 1990, and the last competition in 1994. Persib had also managed to finish as runners-up in 1950, 1959, 1966, 1983, and 1985.

However after the champions, Persib achievement tended to decrease. The climax occurred when they almost got relegated to Division I in 2003. Luckily, through the playoffs, the team managed to stay in the Liga Indonesia.

Modern era

Persib is known as a frequent contributor to both junior and senior national team. Among the players are Risnandar Soendoro, Nandar Iskandar, Adeng Hudaya, Herry Kiswanto, Adjat Sudrajat, Yusuf Bachtiar, Dadang Kurnia, Robby Darwis, Budiman Yunus, Nur'alim, Yaris Riyadi, Erik Setiawan and Eka Ramdani. Some of the active national players in Persib are I Made Wirawan, Supardi Nasir, Firman Utina, Achmad Jufriyanto, Muhammad Ridwan, Hariono, Tony Sucipto, Tantan and Ferdinand Sinaga.
