In 2023 the team's season consisted of mostly races in Asia. The performance of the team in these races gave them a spot as one of the top two UCI Women's Continental Team's of the year. This allowed the team wildcard entry into all 2024 UCI Women's World Tour events. [3] The aim of the 2023 season for the team was to gain points for Uzbekistan to qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics which they did. Due to the team's tight budget they did not race all the WorldTour events. [4]
