The football team was formed in 1977 when there was opened a new mine Luhanska No.1. [2] At the team's beginning stood former players of FC Zorya Luhansk Volodymyr Abramov and Anatoliy Shulzhenko. [2] The team competed in the Luhansk city championship hosting its games in a field next to the local Agricultural Institute. [2]

In the early 1990s the team moved to the newly built stadium in the Luhansk's suburb Yuvileine. [2] In 1993 out of Vahonobudivnyk Stakhanov was invited former Zorya goalkeeper Oleksandr Tkachenko who appointed the club's head coach (manager). [2] Tkachenko became the first actual head coach of the club and the club fielded its senior team in oblast competitions. [2]

As the club improved the club began taking part in the Ukrainian Amateur Competitions starting in 1999. In 2000 when the club was headed by Yuriy Pohrebnyak it brought along several better players and de facto uniting another local team Ellada-Enerhiya and Shakhtar.
