Becamex Ho Chi Minh City Football Club (Vietnamese:Câu lạc bộ bóng đá Becamex Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh), simply known asBecamex HCMC, and formerly known asSông Bé andBecamex Bình Dương, is a professionalfootball club based in Thủ Dầu Một ward,Ho Chi Minh City. It currently plays in Vietnam's top division, theV.League 1. Their home ground isGò Đậu Stadium.
In 1976, the club was established asSông Bé Football Club, named after theBé River, a well-known river inBình Dương Province. The first club's head coach was Do Thoi Vinh. In 1978, two Sông Bé teams competed in the National Division A, with Sông Bé II winning the regional championship. Afterward, the two sides were merged into one club under head coach Nguyen Kim Phung.
In 1994, Sông Bé won its first ever national title, theVietnamese National Cup. One year later, however, they were relegated from theVietnamese National First Division (the highest competition in Vietnam at that time) as punishment by theVFF after Sông Bé and 3 other clubs refused to play 2 relegation play-off matches.[3] In 1996, Sông Bé and Cao Su Binh Long merged into one club which achieved promotion to the top competition that same year.
In January 1997, the club was renamedBình Dương afterSông Bé Province was divided into two parts,Bình Dương andBình Phước. In 1998, Bình Dương was relegated from theFirst Division and suffered for some years from a lack of development.
In 2002,Bình Duong Football Joint-stock Company was founded when Bình Dương was taken over by Bình Dương Television Broadcaster (BTV) andBecamex IDC, the strongest multi-industry economy corporation in Bình Dương.[4] The financial backing from Becamex IDC was a huge boost for the club.
In 2003,Becamex Bình Duong officially promoted to V-League after a convincing victory at theNational First Division.[5][6] With the emergence of talented young players, Becamex Binh Duong quickly became a new force in V-League.[7] In 2007, Becamex Binh Duong officially won the V.League championship.[8][9]
On the afternoon of 17 August 2008, Vietnamese football pitches were once again bustling with matches in round 25 of2008 season.[10] Becamex Binh Duong successfully defended their championship title one round early after winning 4–0 againstBoss Binh Dinh.[11][12] With 3 consecutive victories at the end of the season to finish asV-League 2009 runners-up, Becamex Binh Duong was voted the Best Team of the Month in August by sports reporters nationwide with 42 points.[13][14][15] Becamex Binh Duong continued to win theV.League championship in 2014 and 2015.[16][17][18]
On 14 July 2025,Becamex Binh Duong changed their name toBecamex Ho Chi Minh City.[19]
