From 1993 to 2018 the association was called Lutsch-Energija Vladivostok . In 1993 and 2005 to 2008 the club belonged to the top Russian league and was the UEFA first division club located furthest east .

Club history

The club took part from 1958 under the name Dynamo (Динамо) in regular league operations. After the reorganization of the Soviet Union's football leagues in 1972, the club was included in the Soviet second division, the Pervaya League . The club played until the end of the USSR in the different seasons for the Far East of the second division of the USSR; the best result was the runner-up in the 1984 season.

When the new Russian league was founded in 1992 after the collapse of the Soviet Union , Vladivostok was placed in the "East" season of the first division, the second highest division. At that time the club was called Lutsch (Луч) . As champions of the 1992 season, the team rose to the highest Russian league . However, as the penultimate in 1993 , Vladivostok rose immediately back to the second division. 1997 was followed by a further descent to the third highest league level, where the team from the Far East spent a total of six seasons. It was not until 2005 that the team managed to rise again as champions of the first division . In the 2006 season , the climber reached a respectable seventh place in the table. In the 2007 season , the club narrowly escaped relegation as the fourteenth. In 2008 , however, Vladivostok rose again from bottom of the table. After relegation in 2011/12, Lutsch-Energija spent the 2012/13 season back in the 2nd division and was able to celebrate the immediate rise as one of the relay champions. 2017 almost followed another crash into the third division. However, FK Lutsch-Energija was allowed to remain in the second-class Perwenstwo FNL as a replacement for FK Tschita , who, as a climber from the third-class Perwenstwo PFL, had voluntarily renounced promotion due to lack of funds for the game operation in the second division. As a result, the Lithuanian Valdas Ivanauskas was hired as the new head coach in June 2017 . In the 2017/18 season , the club would have been relegated from the Perwenstwo FNL, but Lutsch again benefited from the withdrawal of several teams from the league, which meant that there were no relegated athletes.

Many other Russian first division clubs complained about the long journey and the extreme time difference in their respective away games in Vladivostok.
