In 2013, the team won Cup title, led by Ali Gurbani. In 2013 Turkmenistan Cup final team beat Altyn Asyr and won the trophy for the second time.[1]

In 2014 season the team began by winning the 2014 Super Cup of Turkmenistan, beating HTTU (4–2).[2] In October 2014[3] the new coach was appointed, Guwançmuhammet Öwekow, which resulted in a victory in the 2014 Turkmenistan Cup,[4][5] having beaten Balkan (2–1).
