Its first notable achievement came in 2003 when Vovchansk became the 3rd place runner-up of regional competition. Yet it was only since 2017 that the club became a real contender for the regional title and started to participate in the national amateur competitions. In 2019–20 and 2020–21 AAFU championships it placed 2nd in the Group 3 and qualifying for the AAFU main league's title. During the 2020–21 season for some time Vovchansk was a group leader, but at finish yielded to Motor Zaporizhia of Chantsev. During this time the club's main team was managed by Andriy Berezovchuk who also performed functions of sports director in both Vovchansk and Metal Kharkiv. In 2021 Berezovchuk officially left the post of sports director in Metal[https://www.ua-football.com/ua/ukrainian/first/1624605967-berezovchuk-pishov-z-posadi-sportivnogo-direktora-metalista.html Березовчук пішов з посади спортивного директора Металіста].
