History

Syarikat Air Melaka Berhad Football Club had their first major success in the 2011 season, when they won the 2011 Liga Melaka. Domestically, SAMB FC has won the Malaysia football tournament, lastly in the 2018, and been eligible to compete in the Malaysia M3 League.

They have played in the previous incarnation of third-tier division in Malaysian football, the Malaysia FAM League from 2016 until 2017. In 2018, they withdrew from the FAM League and played in the Liga Melaka Division 1. They earned promotion into the third-tier division, the Malaysia M3 League in 2019. However, for the 2020 season, they withdrew due to financial reasons. Their slot in the M3 League was given to Melaka City.
