It reached its peak in the 1937–38 season when, after Tommaso Fattori, a legendary figure for the history of the club (the stadium of L'Aquila, Stadio Tommaso Fattori is named after him), joined the team, the club won the local tournament qualifying for the final one, where it finished the season fourth out of 54 participants.

The following year the team won promotion to the Serie A then the highest division in Italy.

Then another period of not brilliant results followed, before they could celebrate their fifth title in 1993–94 after having defeated Milan 23–14 in the historical final in Padua.

In 2009–10 L'Aquila were promoted back to the National Championship of Excellence, finishing 8th in this season.
