February 8 Sports Club

February 8 Sports Club is a North Korean professional multi-sports club.

History
Being established in 1959, the club belongs to the Ministry of People's Armed Forces.

The club name originated from the Korean People's Army's (KPA) date of establishment, which was formed on 8 February 1948. (Until 1977, the original KPA's official date of establishment was 8 February 1948. However, in 1978, it was changed to 25 April 1932, due to Kim Il Sung's anti-Japanese guerilla army – the Korean People's Revolutionary Army, considered the predecessor of the KPA – being formed on 25 April 1932. This change was reverted in 2018).
