From 1928 to 1948

The club was founded in 1928 as U.S. Tranese and refounded in 1938 as S.S. Trani that was renamed Polisportiva Trani in 1948.

Polisportiva Trani

Serie B

Polisportiva Trani was promoted to Serie B on 24 May 1964, following the draw 1–1 with Chieti in the last day of Serie C 1963–1964. At the period of playing in Serie B achieved some memorable victories over teams like Parma, Naples, Palermo, Livorno, as well as a 1–0 derby win against Bari in 1964–65. In the next year Polisportiva Trani took the 20th place with 30 points in the league table and as a result was relegated back to Serie C.

Serie C2 and failure

In 1987–88 they won first place in Group H of Campionato Interregionale, thus winning promotion to Serie C2. In that year it also won the trophy Trani Jacinto, tournament forerunner of Scudetto Dilettanti (established since 1992) playing among the group winners of entire Interregionale. By defeating Poggibonsi in Senigallia, the Trani promoted as champions of Interregionale. Polisportiva Trani played in Serie C2 for eight years and, in 1991–92, blatantly missed promotion in Serie C1 to Campania-Puteolana. The Polisportiva Trani's subsequent years can not be repeated, and in 1995–96 finished in last place and relegated with only 13 points in the standings. The next year the team suffered another relegation. In the 1997–98 season the Polisportiva Trani didn't registered for the championship of Eccellenza Apulia and as a result its sports title was renounced.
