History

The club was founded as Hebei Jingying Zhihai F.C. in 2020 by the former shareholders of Hebei Aoli Jingying (formerly Hebei Elite) after its acquisition by Beijing Sports University Group and co.

They participated in the Hebei FA Amateur League that year and were crowned as champions after beating Tangshan Haihuang Mingzhu in the final, which earned them the right to play in the 2020 Chinese Champions League, in which they lost to Yichun Jiangxi Tungsten Grand Tiger in the quarter-final play-off, as well as the crucial battle for promotion to China League Two, failing to promote.

In 2021, the club changed its name to Hebei Kungfu F.C.,[1] and were admitted into the 2021 China League Two due to the withdrawal of other teams.[2]
