Special mention should go to Fuad Hasan, who was the first iniator , Nazmus Sakib Abhi and Miraz Rahman for influencing lot of the students. The club evolved to what it is now due to relentless of Muhibur Rahman Ajoy , Shams Sourav, Md. Elias, Navid Anjum , Ishti Zico, Khalid Mahmud Saad, Zeyran Mehrnush Juhie Imtiaz Sifat and many more. They were the pioneers of this club. The club was initially founded and branded by the pioneers of MISTPS. There were struggles and there were good times.
