Gwadar Port Authority debuted in the 2011–12 PFF League, where they finished last in their group. They continued in the 2012–13 PFF League where they came second in their group. In the 2020 PFF League, they were second in their group and qualified for the final stage. They defeated Pakistan Police in their second match of the final stage. Gwadar Port Authority ended up in the third place on the group points table and gained promotion to the eventually cancelled 2021–22 Pakistan Premier League. However, they did not compete in the league due to personal decision.[1] Following the domestic football revamp in the country in 2023, departmental clubs including Gwadar Port Authority remained competing in the PFF National Challenge Cup.[2][3]
