History edit

The club was initially established in 1970 as Perseru Serui. In 2010, the club gained promotion to the Premier Division after finishing as the fourth-ranked Liga Indonesia First Division.

In 2013, Perseru achieved its dream to compete at the highest football competition in Indonesia, Indonesia Super League after successfully stepping into the Premier Division Final 2013 season.[2]

In March 2019, Perseru was bought by a businessman in Lampung, since all clubs in Lampung were only competing in third tier league. No clubs in Lampung competed in Liga 1 for decades. Therefore, the club's home base was moved to Lampung, and the club's name was changed from Perseru Serui to Badak Lampung FC. However, they only competed for a year (five years overall) in 2019 Liga 1, and were relegated to Liga 2 for 2020 season.
