[edit] History

Lanwa's forerunner, Gansu Tianma (simplified Chinese: 甘肃天马), was formed in 1999 and played in the Chinese system. Following its relegation from the Yi League (Chinese Third Division), it was bought by Dongguan Dongcheng who renamed the club to its current name and moved it to the Hong Kong pyramid.
