Thapa captained and played for Manang Marshyangdi Club in the domestic league.
He also helped Manang Marshyangdi Club clinch A Division League in 2014.

In the aftermath Thapa was suspended two games while Nepal Army Megh Raj KC was suspended for his out burst directed at the referee.
Sharwan Lama was also penalized for not properly handling the incident.
