Tianjin Teda FC (Chinese: 天津泰达足球俱乐部; pinyin: Tiānjīn Tàidá zúqiú jùlèbù) is a Chinese football club based in Tianjin and owned by the TEDA Group. (The club name is derived from the initials of Tianjin Economic - Technological Development Area). The club was founded in 1957, and took on its current identity in 1998, becoming Jia B Champions that same year. They currently play in the Chinese Super League.
Teda's home stadium is the 37,450 seat capacity TEDA Football Stadium which is located in the Tianjin Economic and Technological Development Area.
The current head coach position is open after former head coach Arie Haan left after season 2011. Assistant coaches include former team captain Wang Xiao (王霄) , former midfielder Liu Xueyu (刘学宇) and former goalkeeper of national team Fu Bin (符宾).
Evidence recently suggested that Tianjin had paid some officers and referees of China Football Association bribes (12 million Yuans) to avoid being demoted to the lower level league.
The club has also set up a sister-city relationship with Australian A-League Club, Melbourne Victory. In 2007, the two clubs played off in the Lord Mayor's Cup, which has become an annual offseason match between the two clubs.
