When the official league pyramid was introduced for the 1928/29 season, the club was divided into the fourth division, from which the team rose in the first year as a season winner in the third division. In the mid-1930s, the club established itself in the promotion race to the second division. In 1936, the team moved into the promotion round as the season winner of Division 3 Västsvenska Södra , but failed there because of Tidaholms GIF .

After eight years in the fourth level, the club reported back in 1994 as a season winner ahead of local rivals Qviding FIF and IFK Trollhättan in the third division. Together with co-promoted Qviding FIF, the club knew how to surprise in the new league and won the season in front of the Gothenburg club and Holmalunds IF and returned to the second division.
