History
Aswan football team played a total of 7 seasons in the Egyptian Premier League in its history.[1] The team first appeared in the Premier league in the 1990–91 season, while the last season was in 2003–04. The longest spell the team spent in the Premier league was for only three consecutive seasons (from 1996–97 to 1998–99).
The lowest part of the clubs recent history is widely thought to be around the new year of 1994, when the club, struggling for players after relegation, offered a trial to former Luton starlet, Paul Smith, only for him to reject the offer in favour of continuing his coach trip to Luxor.
Aswan F.C. currently competes in the Egyptian first Division.
