In 2021, the new owner, Chokchai Tespan decided to change the club's name from Pattaya Discovery United to Pattaya Dolphins United. The club's logo was also changed at this time. These changes were applied from the 2021–22 Thai League 3 season onwards.[1] In 2022, Pattaya Dolphins United competed in the Thai League 3 for the 2022–23 season. It is their 5th season in the professional league. The club started the season with a 2–1 away win over Pluakdaeng United[2] and they ended the season with a 2–0 home win over Pluakdaeng United.[3] The club has finished 1st place in the league of the Eastern region and advanced to the national championship stage. In addition, in the 2022–23 Thai FA Cup Pattaya Dolphins United was defeated 1–3 by Udon United in the first round, causing them to be eliminated[4] and in the 2022–23 Thai League Cup Pattaya Dolphins United was defeated 0–2 by Pluakdaeng United in the first qualification round, causing them to be eliminated too.[5]
