History[edit]

The club was founded in 1926. In 1946, Skra became the champion of the Częstochowa district, which was why it was promoted to the Polish championships played in the cup system. In the Round of 16, the team lost 3-5 to Tęcza Kielce. In the 1947 season, Skra continued to play in the central games in the fight for the title of Polish Champion and qualification for the League in the 1948 season. The team took 7th place in the group, not being promoted to the League. Until 1952, the team played in the 2nd league. In the years 1950–1954 the club performed under the name of Ogniwo Częstochowa. In the years 1953-1966 the club played in the third league. In 2018, the club was promoted to the II Liga (level 3), and in 2021 to the I Liga (level 2).

Because their stadium didn’t meet the capacity requirements of the I liga, in the first part of the 2021/2022 season they played every home match on the opponent’s stadium, as the home team. From April 7, 2022, they play their home games at a substitute stadium GIEKSA Arena.[2]
