The Lutsk club was formed in 1960 initially as Avanhard, after the Soviet Avanhard (Avangard) sports society, but before the start of competition the name was changed to Volyn. The club initially entered the third division of Soviet professional football. In 1968 the Lutsk Machinebuilding Factory became the club's new sponsor (today – LuAZ) and changed its name to Torpedo. However in 1971 the club declared insolvency. The city was represented by SKA Lvov of Carpathian Military District that relocated to Lutsk. In 1977 the club was revived as Torpedo and re-entered the Soviet third division where it continued to participate until the fall of the Soviet regime. On January 30, 1989 Torpedo was succeeded by new club Volyn. The club took part in the Ukrainian Premier League from its first championship in 1992.
