History

Krasny Yar was founded in 1969 in the city of Krasnoyarsk. Krasny Yar have been unsuccessful in the Professional Rugby League era. The club has not been champions since the Super League era, with their most recent championship being in 2001. The club's financial resources have also been overtaken by their local rivals, Enisey-STM.
