At the end of the very first season in history, it succeeded to win the Liga IV Dolj County Championship.

But at the play-off that followed, to decide the promoted team to the Liga III, it lost in front of CS Albota, the winner of the Liga IV Argeș County Championship.

But soon after this, the mass withdrawal of teams from the Liga III championship because of the financial crisis, an opportunity arose that could not be missed, so it enrolled for the 2009–10 Liga III season.

The club played its matches in Craiova since the promotion to the Liga III, on the Chimia Stadium, because the local stadium in Bârca doesn't meet the requirements.

After it relegated in 2011 from the Liga III, the club moved back to Bârca and enrolled in the Liga V. In the summer of 2024 the club changed its name to Avântul Bârca.
