Persatuan Sepakbola Padang (simply known as PSP Padang) is an Indonesian football club based in Padang, West Sumatra. They currently compete in the Liga 3 and their homeground is Gelora Haji Agus Salim Stadium.[3]
PSP Padang was established in 1928 as Sport Vereniging Minang (SVM), under the Padang football organization. Club later known as Ilans Padang Electal (IPE) became the forerunner to the establishment of PSP Padang.[4]
However, the existence of IPE did not last long, because the Dutch Colonial Government changed it by forming a Padang football organization in 1935 with the name Voetballbond Padang En Omstreken, chaired by Meneer Vander Lee.
Along with domestic political turmoil, in 1942 the Netherlands handed over its power to Japan. The initiative to change the name of the VPO to PSP (Persatuan Sepak Bola Padang) was started, and Yusuf St. Mantari became the first chairman under the new name.
The official national football competition began under the PSSI in 1951. With the holding of two rounds, the competition existed at the district and the national level.[5]
They appeared for the first time at the 1957 PSSI National Championship. In the first qualifying round, Zone A was inhabited by PSS (Pematangsiantar-East Sumatra) and PS Palembang (South Sumatera). PSP came out as the winner of zone A after winning 6–0 over PSS and 5–0 over PS Palembang. In the second qualifying round, PSP joined Persib Bandung and Persis Solo, agaun showing its superiority in a 3–1 win against Persib, followed by a 4–4 draw against Persis Solo.
At the national level, they were ranked 5th with 4 points from the results of one win (5–1 against Persebaya Surabaya), two draws (1–1 against Persija Jakarta and Persema Malang), and three defeats (against PSMS Medan, Persib Bandung, and PSM Makassar). The goalkeeper Yus Etek was called up for the Indonesia national team.
