Association Sportive Dragon compete in the Tahitian Ligue 1 and are based in Papeete, the capital city of French Polynesia. AS Dragon were founded in 1968 to represent Tahiti’s Chinese community, who have a sizeable presence, particularly in Papeete. An estimated 5-10% of the population in Papeete have Chinese ancestry, who first arrived more than 150 years prior for menial labor jobs and then made Tahiti home. In recent decades, the team has evolved to include a diverse mix of cultures, with many of Tahiti’s most famous footballers being of Chinese ancestry, including Raimana Li Fung Kuee, Steevy Chong Hue, Angelo Tchen & Vincent Simon Lo-Shing. Despite their long history, AS Dragon have only recently become one of Tahiti’s strongest clubs, winning their breakthrough maiden league title in the 2011-12 season. They have since won the Ligue 1 title 3 times as well as the Coupe de Polynésie on 6 occasions, most recently in 2018.

Raimana Li Fung Kuee is a legend of Tahitian football, having had a prominent career at club level for many years, as well as international level with both the beach football national team and the senior national team. The 37-year-old played his youth football in France with Ligue 1 club FC Nantes before returning to Tahiti to join AS Dragon in 2004, where he played a key role in their rise to become a top club in Tahiti. In 2014, he moved to Tahitian giants AS Pirae, scoring 30 league goals in his first season with the club to win his second Golden Boot award in the league. He later returned to AS Dragon in 2020 and is captain of the club in his 18th season in the Tahitian Ligue 1. At international level, Raimana has won 9 caps and scored 2 goals for the Tahiti national team since his debut in 2007.
