During their seven years career in the Polish Football League, they scored 141 points, with the total goal quota of 120:186. In 1928 the club came 8th in the league, which was the highest location in its history. However, the following year Czarni's forward Rochus Nastula
was the top scorer in Polish Soccer League, with 25 goals scored in one season. In 1933 the club dropped from the first league, but continued to appear in national championships.
In 1935 the club won the Polish Cup (Mistrzostwa Polski). In the same year the club won also the Polish ice hockey title. In 1936 the name was changed back to "Military and Civil Sports Club Sława Lwów". Following the German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the city was occupied by the Soviet Union. The club was disbanded in 1939 by the NKVD who arrested most of its members. Two pre-war footballers, Henryk Bilor and Tadeusz Kowalski, and athlete Tadeusz Kirchner were among Poles murdered by the Russians in the large Katyn massacre in April–May 1940.[1]
The most famous player of Czarni Lwów was Kazimierz Górski.
