Home United FC (Singapore)

Home United Football Club is a professional soccer club which plays in Singapore's S.League.

When the S.League was formed in 1996, the club was known as the Police Football Club. The following year, its name was changed to Home United to reflect that fact that the team represents not only the Singapore Police Force, but also other service arms of the Singapore Ministry of Home Affairs, including the Singapore Civil Defence Force.

Home United won the S.League in 1999 and 2003, and the Singapore Cup in 2000, 2001, 2003 and 2005.

The team's nickname is the "Protectors", and its mascot is a dragon. The team's home ground is the Bishan Stadium.
