Thai League 3
Eastern Region
Season2024–25
Dates14 September 2024 – TBD

The 2024–25 Thai League 3 Eastern Region is part of the 2024–25 Thai League 3 Regional Stage, consisting of 12 clubs located in the eastern region of Thailand, as well as some from the eastern part of the central region. Following regional adjustments, one club was reallocated from the former Bangkok Metropolitan Region (now the Central Region) to the Eastern Region to better align with geographical considerations. The season will commence on 14 September 2024,[1] with clubs competing in a round-robin format featuring home-and-away matches. The Regional Stage will conclude on TBD, at which point the top two clubs will advance to the National Championship Stage, while the bottom-placed club will face relegation to the Thailand Semi-pro League for the following season. This stage exemplifies the competitive edge of clubs from the industrial and coastal areas, where football thrives amidst rapid development and strong community support.

Road travel distances between clubs

[edit]

The distances between football clubs in the 2024–25 Thai League 3 Eastern Region are approximate and calculated based on the most convenient and shortest practical road routes. These measurements prioritize routes that balance proximity and ease of travel, avoiding too indirect or inconvenient paths despite their shorter distance. By focusing on practical road travel, this chart reflects the real-world journey clubs will undertake for away matches, considering the road infrastructure and conditions in eastern Thailand. This provides valuable insight into the logistical challenges clubs face during the season and is an essential resource for planning travel for clubs and their supporters.

Among the distances calculated, the shortest is notably 0 kilometers, representing ACDC and Fleet, as well as Marines and Navy, who share their respective home stadiums, making travel unnecessary. Conversely, the longest road journey between clubs spans 195 kilometers, marking the trip from Saimit Kabin United to both ACDC and Fleet, as the distance to these two clubs is identical. In terms of total travel distances over the season, Saimit Kabin United faces the most extensive journey, covering approximately 1,671 kilometers, while BFB Pattaya City has the least travel, totaling around 860 kilometers. These travel disparities are presented in the accompanying table, which offers a detailed breakdown of road distances between each club, providing valuable insights into the logistical demands clubs face in the 2024–25 season.
