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.

Several New Zealand players signed on to play for Krasny Yar for the 2010 and 2011 Seasons, while the club has also recruited a New Zealand trainer working with the Canterbury Rugby Union.
