As an amateur side, Rovinka defeated Senica of the Slovak First Football League 3–2 in the third round of the 2020–21 Slovak Cup, causing an upset.[3] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Slovakia, amateur clubs were expelled from the competition before the next round, so Rovinka played no further part in the cup.[4]

Rovinka won the 4. liga, Bratislava Region in the 2022–23 season, but refused to apply for a license to play in the third-tier league for the following season, thus remaining at the fourth level.[5]
