Historically, Narva Trans has been a stable presence in Estonian football, often finishing in mid-table positions but also achieving strong results in certain periods.

During this time, the team also established itself as a strong competitor in domestic competitions.
Narva Trans has won several national trophies, including multiple Estonian Cups and Estonian Supercups.
