[citation needed] In 1930, the Albanian Football Association was established and the first officially recognised competitions were held in the country.

The club had entered to compete in a national competition for the first time, and were placed in the inaugural second tier championship along with Shqiponja Gjirokastër, SK Lushnja, Bardhyli Lezhë and Muzaka Berat.

For the following two seasons SK Fier competed in Group B of the Second Division to no avail as they failed to the reach the final stage of the competition.

Between 1937 and 1939 there was no Second Division held, and shortly after World War II broke out which meant that many clubs including SK Fier ceased sporting activities until 1945.

Following the return of football activities, the club changed its name back to Apollonia Fier and began functioning in 1945 and entered to compete in the top flight for the first time, participating in the 1945 Albanian Championship, where they were placed in Group B.

[1] They were eventually relegated and as there was no Second Division held at the time the club was reduced to playing friendly games, before successfully joining the 1948 Albanian Championship, again in Group B.

[citation needed] After the fall of communism just like in every club in Albania, many players left to continue their career abroad.

In 1992, the football branch was separated from the main club and continued as KF Apolonia Fier under chairman Koço Kokëdhima.

The next season the club would finish in a disappointing seventh place but they managed to reach for the first and only time in their history the final of the Albanian Cup.

[5][6] Apollonia's biggest rivals are KS Lushnja and the match between the two clubs is referred as "The Myzeqe Derby".
