History[edit]

In the early years, KS Delvina was called Nimet Abazi Delvinë from 1918 to 1945, then, until 1951, it was called Delvina. 1951 to 1958 all clubs in Albania were forced to have “Puna” in their club’s name. So Delvina was called “Puna Delvina”. Until 1993, it was called KF Bistrica to represent the lake of Bistrica. In the 2011-12 season, the club finished in 8th place. In the 2015-16 season, the club finished in 3rd place, qualifying for the 2016-17 Albanian Cup but did not compete due to a suspension. They won the 1986-87 Albanian Second Division trophy. The colors of the club are Yellow and Black to represent the old KF Bistrica (1958-1993). The club’s rivals are Butrinti.
