RIHS FC
RIHS is a football club from Bhutan, based at Changlimithang, who played in the Bhutan A-Division, then the top level of football in Bhutan, but since replaced by a full national league. They spent two seasons in the top flight of Bhutanese football before being relegated following a season that included the record defeat for a football team in Bhutan. History The first recorded instance of RIHS playing in the top flight of Bhutanese football was in 2006. Details are lacking for this season and their final position is not known. The only result that is known is a 4–1 loss to Yeedzin. It is also not known how they came to be in the A-Division for that season. They were not involved in the final of the B-Division for 2005, which was contested between Choden and Rookies, so were presumably not involved in the promotion playoffs that followed. They finished seventh in the 2007 season and were relegated. The league table for the 2007 season is incomplete and only a handful of resu ...
