Club history
After it was founded on July 7, 1996, the club from Rūdiškės initially played in a regional league and finished tenth of twelve places after the season. In the next season, the team reached second place and was able to successfully play for promotion to the Lithuanian 3rd division (fourth-highest division in the country). In the following years, the team continued to rise until it came to the A Lyga for the first time in 2001 . There the team rose again after a season.
In the 2001/02 season the club reached the quarter-finals of the national cup and was able to celebrate promotion to the A Lyga again as champions of the 1 Lyga (second highest division) , reaching the cup final and third place in the league were the sporting successes of the following season .
In 2004 the club moved to Vilnius, the stadium at that time held 3500 spectators. With the continuity in the A Lyga , the stadium was expanded to 5300 seats in 2005, followed by an extension for VIPs in 2006 , so that the stadium could hold 5500 spectators.
In 2005, 2007/08 and 2009/10 the cup final was reached again, in which the club was defeated. In the Baltic League , the club was able to reach the quarter-finals in 2007 and 2009/10. In 2009, the A Lyga achieved the highest placement with second place.
In 2010 there were initially irregularities in the licensing process, and later unpaid wage payments to the former player Almir Sulejmanovič were discovered, which each led to the deduction of six points. In the summer break, due to insolvency, the club was finally excluded from league games and the club was dissolved.
