Martapura, with mostly local players, got promoted in their first season in the highest amateur division in Indonesia after finishing second in the third round of the 2013 Liga Indonesia First Division. With their promotion, they became a professional club.[1] They are one of team in Indonesia that have not been supported by the local government financially, even though they performed at amateur level until 2013 and are allowed to get financial support.[2]
