History

The Central Army Sports Club of Yerevan was founded in 1947. However, they made their professional debut in domestic football competitions in the 1994 Armenian First League where they finished 3rd.

In the 1995–96 Armenian First League season they finished 2nd behind FC Arabkir, to get the opportunity to face Aragats FC in the promotion play-off match in which they beat the Armenian Premier League side and were promoted for the following season. Halfway through the 1997 season, BKMA Yerevan went into bankruptcy and all their remaining matches were awarded 3–0 to their opponents, resulting in the 12th and last position and relegation. The club has been inactive ever since.[1]
