RBAC Football Club (Thai: สโมสรฟุตบอลมหาวิทยาลัยรัตนบัณฑิต) is a Thai football club. They are the reserve team of Ratchaburi F.C. and represented for Rattana Bundit University. The club currently plays in the Regional League Division 2 Bangkok & field Region. Recently, This football club MOU Ratchaburi Mitr Phol F.C. and change football club name, nickname and logo to Ratchaburi Mitr Phol RBAC F.C.

R-BEC FC were born off the back of Bangkok Metropolitan Administration FC, who went bankrupt in the Asian Financial Crisis of 1998. Bangkok Metropolitan Administration FC themselves took over from SET FC (Stock Exchange of Thailand) in similar circumstances in the early years of the Thailand Premier League.

SET FC reached the championship final playoff match in 1997, where they came up against Bangkok Bank FC in which they lost 2–0. Bangkok Bank FC therefore claimed in the inaugural Thailand Premier League title and SET FC claimed the runners up spot.

Following a new set-up for the Thailand Premier League 1997 season, SET FC, played under the name Bangkok Metropolitan Administration FC and came in a creditable 7th position. The following year, Bangkok Metropolitan Administration FC fell down the league table and finished in 11th position, which forced the club to enter the promotion / relegation end of season playoff match. Here they met Assumption Sriraja. This year also saw Bangkok Metropolitan Administration FC first piece of silverware as they won the 14th Yamaha Thailand Cup, beating Nakhon Si Thammarat in the final.

In the Thailand Premier League 1999 season they moved up the table and finished in 9th position, an improvement on the previous year. The Thailand Premier League 2000 season was BMA's last, as they finished in 4th position but fell on hard times and were replaced by Rattana Bundit FC the following year in the Thailand Premier League. It is believed that the club uses the same badge but plays under a different name from BMA and has closer links to the university in the area.
