Rizhao Yuqi

Rizhao Yuqi was founded in 2014 as a grassroots club in the coastal city of Rizhao, Shandong, and steadily climbed China’s football pyramid through disciplined organization. Their breakthrough came in 2022 when they won the Chinese Champions League, securing promotion to China League Two and entering professional football for the first time. The team plays its home matches at the Rizhao International Football Center, a modern venue that reflects the city’s growing football ambitions. Known for a cohesive, hard-working style built on local talent and tactical discipline, Rizhao Yuqi has quickly become a symbol of regional pride.
