It is held biennially, usually in November, at Suphachalasai Stadium in Bangkok, with the schools rotating as hosts.

Background

Prior to the establishment

Thailand was full of student fights between different schools, colleges and universities, and gang violence between youngsters in the late 1950s and early 1960s countrywide, which is a big problem for schools, teachers, parents, students who don't involve in a fight, society and government at that time.

In addition of gang violence, there were also having money extortions from ordinary people.

Many people, especially in Bangkok and its nearby provinces, fear to get injured unintentionally from the collateral damages from student fights and gang violences. (At the late 1950s)

The ministry of education , led by then-Education Minister (Mom Luang Pin Malakul), make a meeting to solve the problem. Then, they choose these 4 schools to be the "example schools" to shows that students, even from the different schools can be friends and not enemies to each other. The "Chosen schools" include Assumption College, Bangkok Christian College, Debsirin School and Suankularb Wittayalai School to show that there are the other schools who don't fights to each other.

However, being chosen alone aren't enough for these schools. This led to the executives of all 4 have a conference to decide how "We bond together", and that led to this conclusion: "Let's organized the football match together".

Overtime, these schools and the competition itself established bonds and connections between each other. https://www.dailynews.co.th/news/2883376/]

Establishment of the competition

The first championship series was held from 16 October to 18 November 1964, with student unity as a central theme for the games. Subsequent competitions were held annually until 1985, except in 1966–1967, 1972, 1974–1977 and 1979–1980. From 1987, the competition continued on a biennial basis. It is a popular Thai football event, and outstanding players from the competition continue their careers by playing in the Thailand Premier League, including such figures as Thawatchai Damrong-Ongtrakul and Teerathep Winothai. The event is regularly broadcast on national television, and the three latest competitions have also been broadcast via live streaming video with live scores published on an official website. In addition to the matches themselves, great efforts are made to create elaborate displays and card stunts (Thai: แปรอักษร) by volunteer students from each of the schools.

Although unity has always been the central theme of the competition (jaturamitr is derived from the Sanskrit sa + sa, meaning 'four friends' and samakkee (from Pali pa) translates as 'harmony' or 'unity'). The word Jaturamitr is often used as a catch phrase to refer to students or alumni of the four participating schools. Strong rivalries have developed between the schools. Especially intense are the rivalries between Suankularb and Debsirin and Assumption versus Bangkok Christian. This has led to several cases of inter-school violence during the weeks of the competition. The extent of the issue is such that strict audience segregation and security enforcement is required during the matches.
