Their home stadium was Yenagoa Township Stadium but for the 2009–10 season played some home games at Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City.[http://www.sportsday.com.ng/nigeria/news/2009-09-14/ocean-boys-relocate-benin.html Ocean Boys relocate Benin]{{dead link|date=February 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

They were disqualified from the Premier League and relegated in 2012 for not fulfilling their fixtures. All games involving them were thrown out and the league table recalculated.

They were admitted after debate into the National League and changed their name to Divine Warriors F.C. However, after nine games (and just two wins) manager Ada Gwegwe resigned, and due to finances the team sold their slot in the league to Fountain F.C. before going on hiatus.[https://archive.today/20130411114431/http://nationaldailyngr.com/sports-news/ocean-boys-finally-quits-nigeria-premier-league http://nationaldailyngr.com/sports-news/ocean-boys-finally-quits-nigeria-premier-league]
