By season 97/98 the club was in a much better condition, on and off the field, and after again winning the Federal Division this time after beating Cabardes 23-17 they accepted promotion.

After relegation at the turn of the millennium the club won promotion back to the 3rd tier following victory over Saint-Laurent de la Salanque 30-8 in season 2006/07.

Relegation once again followed and despite winning the regional Aquitaine League in National Division 2 they lost out in the play-offs to RC Begles XIII.

Back in the 3rd tier the club has fared better than previous attempts indeed in season 2015/16 they won the National Division 1 West but lost against Saint-Martin XIII in the play-offs 62-70 over two legs.

In November 2018, Clairac played against Réalmont to determine which of the National Division teams would qualify for the Elite championship.
