Traceable evidence of football in Volyn Oblast takes its roots from the Polish Wołyń District League that was liquidated during the World War II in 1939.

[3] Among variations there were "Dynamo" (as the leading regional team in 1946–1956) or more patriotic "Styr" until one of the players did not say "Volyn"... After a brief pause, everyone caused a noise and unanimously determined that it is what needed to be.

In 1968, the club was placed under the care of a new "sponsor" - Mashzavod (later - Lutsk Automobile Plant, LuAZ) and renamed Torpedo.

At the winter pre-season preparations in Transcarpathia, "Torpedo" won the "Podsnezhnik" Cup of the Ukrainian SSR Football Federation, which was quite prestigious at the time.

Another surge took place in 1981, when head coach Vyacheslav Pershin by attracting talented youth and experienced veterans to the team managed to create a true fighting collective.

Its fate was decided in the match of the last round between SKA Kyiv and "Torpedo" - both teams had an equal number of points.

Taking into account the political and economic changes in the life of the country, on January 30, 1989, at a meeting of public organizations of the city, a self-supporting (khozrasschyot) football club was created, which was given back its initial name - "Volyn".

In the same season, from the very first rounds, the players of Lutsk entered the fight for the highest awards and, having confidently passed the intense competition of 52 matches (32 wins with 6 losses), won the title of champions of Ukraine.

The Football Federation of the Soviet Union also jammed a pole into wheels by forbidding re-signing of players for promotional matches, and canceling this decision before the very start of them, warning only Volyn's competitors about it.

However, in the summer, the head coach of "Volyn" Myron Markevych left the team without warning and went to Lviv, taking with him two key players - Plotko and Topchiyev.

After a series of bleak matches at the beginning of the 1994–95 season, the fans forced Roman Pokora to leave the coaching post.

However, at the beginning of the second half, the local authorities helped dismiss Kvartsyanyi from the position of head coach, and Yuriy Dyachuk-Stavytskyi took his place.

But the championship of 1998–99 could have ended in a disaster - having suffered seven defeats in a row in the second half, the Luchans came close to the relegation zone.

A bleak play during the first half barely allowed the Luchans to go to the break in 15th place, behind which was the Second League (Druha Liha).

In this difficult moment, a well-known businessman who became the new president of the club - Vasyl Stolyar and head coach Vitaliy Kvartsyanyi - came to the team's aid, who set the goal of reaching the top league.

In the second half, "Volyn" rose to the ninth position in the table, having won an enchanting victory over CSKA-2 Kyiv - 7:0 in the last match.

Even before the start of the season, experts noted "Volyn" as one of the main contenders for entry to the top league, because the team gathered many qualified and experienced players.

The gold medals of the Champions of the 2001–02 Ukrainian First League were awarded to: goalkeepers - Yuriy Nikitenko, Roman Nesterenko; defenders - Oleh Fedyukov, Yuriy Kondakov, Vitaliy Rozghon, Lyubomyr Halchuk, Yaroslav Komzyuk; midfielders - Volodymyr Hashchyn, Yuriy Dudnyk, Serhiy Honcharenko, Andriy Pisniy, Volodymyr Hapon, Dmytro Topchiyev, Oleksandr Aharin; attackers - Vasyl Sachko, Serhiy Kryvyi, Oleksandr Hrebenozhko, Volodymyr Lutsenko, Viktor Matsyuk, Serhiy Hordun, Vadym Solodkyi, Oleksandr Stolyarchuk.

However, the high-quality additional staffing of "Volyn" in the off-season allowed the team to feel confident in the second half and solve the main task - a berth place in the top league was preserved.

The next championship was ambiguous for "Volyn" - starting from the start of the season, the Luchans entered the struggle for a place in the "UEFA competitions qualification zone", but in the middle of the second half, the team suffered a decline - draws were followed by defeats, and in the end - only eighth place, although during the 25 rounds, the Volyn team confidently stayed in the top four.

However, the catastrophic situation with the club's finances led to the outflow of the "core" players and a slow fall to the bottom of the tournament table.

In the Persha Liha, joined with young players the team played rather unstable and, despite regular victories over the leaders, managed to lose points in matches against unambitious opponents.

"Volyn" got a chance to compete for promotion in the next season, but in the winter the coaching staff carried out a significant revamp of the team with youth, getting rid of a number of leading performers.

Despite the fears of the fans, the team, whose average age was about twenty years old, managed to win the fifth place in the final standings "on nerves".

In the same year, Oleksandr Pyshchur repeated the record of 1989, scoring 22 goals during the season, and became the top scorer of the Persha Liha, and also received the title of the best player of the League by the PFL.

In the off-season, "Volyn" carried out a solid personnel reinforcement and from the first rounds joined the fight to enter the Ukrainian Premier League.

Later, the team slowed down and further things in the championship did not stick together again, but in the Ukrainian Cup "Volyn" once again made a great "run": at the Round of 32, there was completely defeated "Illichivets" - 7:1, and in the Round of 16 - "Dnipro" - 3:2, considering that Luchans were losing 0:2 and remained with ten players after goalkeeper Vitaliy Nedilko was sent off in the middle of the first half.

The second part of the 2013–14 championship, which was postponed for 2 weeks due to the political situation in the country and the Russian aggression against Ukraine, was more of a failure.

This is how the main composition of the team gradually crystallized, which gained good momentum at the end of the first and second stages of the tournament distance.

The regional rivalry includes games between Avanhard Rovno and SC Lutsk (last one being represented by the Carpathian Military District).
