History

Hubei Huakaier was established in December 2011 by the China-Kyle Special Steel Co., Ltd and they brought in Li Jianzhong (李建忠) as their Chairman as well as Li Jun (李军) as their first manager.[1] They registered to play within China League Two, third tier of the Chinese football league system in the 2012 league season. They finished 4th place in South Group and advanced to play-offs narrowly. After beating Hebei Zhongji and Shenzhen Fengpeng, two hottest clubs for promotion in the 2012 season, Hubei Huakaier won promotion to China League One.

Hubei Huakaier moved to Xinjiang's capital city Ürümqi and changed their name to Xinjiang Tianshan Leopard in February 2014.[2]
