History

When the Ukrainian Premier League created the Ukrainian Premier Reserve League there was an incentive for clubs to field their reserve clubs in the competition. Illichivets Mariupol still remain to field Illichivets-2 as their third team. However, after the complete of the 2011-12 Ukrainian Second League the club removed junior team and enter the newly formed Ukrainian Premier League Under-19 competition.


The senior club was relegated from the Premier League in 2015 but still remain committed to the juniors school system. The club entered the team back into the Ukrainian Second League for the 2015-16 Ukrainian Second League season.
