Indonesia Soccer Championship (Template:Lang-id), also known as Torabika Soccer Championship for sponsorship reasons, was a temporarily professional football competition system in Indonesia, replacing the temporarily-suspended Indonesia League.[1]

History

Origins

Further information: Indonesia Super League

After the ISL was stopped and the management of PSSI under La Nyalla Mattalitti was frozen by Minister for Youth and Sports Affairs Imam Nahrawi on 17 April 2015, FIFA then froze the membership of PSSI, resulting in the suspension of the Indonesian Football Association. Tournaments were made to replace the league, starting with the 2015 President's Cup (Template:Lang-id) where Persib Bandung came out as champions, until the Bhayangkara Cup (Template:Lang-id) closed the series of unrecognized tournaments ahead of ISC 2016. The 2015–16 season of the Indonesia Super League (ISL) was originally scheduled to start from either 24 or 25 of October 2015 and end in August 2016.[2] However, various facing constraints thwarted the plan, including the use of the name "Indonesia Super League" which was the property of PSSI. Finally PT Liga and Indonesian football clubs agreed not to use the "ISL" name for the upcoming long-term tournaments.[3]

Establishment

PT Gelora Trisula Semesta (GTS) held a meeting with all of the ex-ISL and Premier Division clubs on Friday, 26 February 2016, and agreed to form ISC 2016 that would contain 18 ex-ISL clubs and 59 from the Premier Division.[4] The competition was approved by the government.[5] Using the name Torabika Soccer Championship, ISC officially launched on Monday, 18 April 2016.[6]
