History
The club, which was founded in 1987,[3] was promoted to the Pune Super Division, the top football league in the Pune district of Maharashtra, in 1989.[4]
Then in early 2013 the club announced their intent to make it at the national level of Indian football by asking for direct entry into the I-League, the top football league in India, from the All India Football Federation, along with Dodsal.[5] However on 25 January 2013 it was announced that instead of direct entry, DSK would have to participate and finish in a top two spot in the 2013 I-League 2nd Division if they want to win promotion to the I-League.[2]
