History

The first Soviet clubs in Drohobych appeared soon after annexation of former Eastern Polish territories by the Soviet Union. As usual the best clubs that were established in the city like in many other cities were Dynamo and Spartak which dominated the football life until 1950.

In 1950 at the Oil Refinery Factory was established a team that eventually made its way to the all-Union level, Naftovyk Drohobych. With reorganization of the Soviet league and discontinuation of the Class B competitions, the team was disbanded. Sometime parallelly there existed another weaker team Dolotnyk Drohobych which represented another factory.

After Naftovyk was disbanded, in 1971 at the factory of road equipment cranes was established a new team which was named Avanhard at first and in 1972 renamed as Torpedo. With some breaks it existed until 1978.

In 1979 there was established yet another team Khimik Drohobych that in 1982 was renamed as Avanhard and existed until 1989.

The club was created earlier in 1989 as Naftovyk Drohobych on the decision of the Drohobych city municipality and its head coach was appointed Jose Turchyk, a native of Buenos-Aires, Argentina whose family moved to the Soviet Union in the 1950s.
