History[edit]

The history of the founding of PSIM began on 5 September 1929 with the birth of a football organization called the Perserikatan Sepak Raga Mataram (PSM). The name Mataram was used because Yogyakarta was the center of the Mataram Sultanate. Then on 27 July 1930 the name PSM was changed to the Perserikatan Sepakbola Indonesia Mataram (PSIM) as a demand for the national movement to achieve Indonesian independence. At that time it was actually an agency for the struggle of the Indonesian nation and state.^[2]

On 19 April 1930, PSIM together with VIJ Jakarta (now Persija Jakarta), BIVB Bandung (Persib Bandung), MIVB (PPSM Magelang), MVB (PSM Madiun), SIVB (Persebaya Surabaya), VVB (Persis Solo) also attended the establishment PSSI in a meeting held at Societeit Hadiprojo Yogyakarta. in the meeting represented by HA Hamid, Daslam, and Amir Noto. After going through various meetings, it was finally agreed to establish a parent organization named PSSI Persatuan Sepak Raga Seluruh Indonesia in 1931 and take place in Yogyakarta.^[3]

In the 70s, PSIM could not do much at the level of the main competition, but PSIM had achieved an achievement, namely having scored the only goal against a semi-professional club from Australia who was on a tour to Indonesia, the goal of PSIM was scored by Sucipto, one of the players. PSIM who participated in Diklat Salatiga and along with other players, Suripto, even though at the end of the match PSIM lost 1–5. Another achievement was when they defeated the Indonesia national team which was managed by coach Marota Yanek from Poland in a friendly match at the Kridosono Stadium, the final result of the match 1–0 for PSIM wins.^[4]

Since the Indonesian league started in 1994, PSIM's achievements have experienced ups and downs marked by the ups and downs of PSIM from the main division to division 1 of the Indonesian League. PSIM experienced relegation in the 1994–95 Liga Indonesia Premier Division and promoted two years later. After competing for three seasons in the premier division, PSIM again had to be relegated to Liga Indonesia First Division in the 1999–2000 Liga Indonesia Premier Division.^[5]

Three years later, in Division 1 Liga Indonesia 2003 PSIM began to rise again and has a target for promotion with a well-prepared team. In the preliminary round, PSIM even beat the favorite team Persebaya Surabaya twice in away matches with a landslide score of 3–1, and 3–0, and won Group C. However, PSIM's strength was getting worse and worse so that it failed to continue its dominance in the last 8 round. take place in full competition.

In the playoffs played in Solo, PSIM was unable to compete with Persela Lamongan only because of the difference in the number of goals.^[5]
