ADT were then 1979 Copa Perú champions, after defeating Comercial Aguas Verdes, Defensor Lima, Deportivo Garcilaso, and Universidad Técnica de Cajamarca.

The club managed to reach the National Stage of the 2010 Copa Perú, after defeating historic teams like Alianza Universidad and Unión Minas in their group; later they were eliminated by Alianza Unicachi of Puno in the semifinals.

In 2011, they reached the National Stage again, but were eliminated by Alianza Universidad in the quarterfinals.

After many years of irregular campaigns, in 2021, the club won Copa Perú for the second time in their history after defeating Alfonso Ugarte from Puno, achieving promotion back to Primera Division after 31 years. ADT ended the 2022 season in thirteenth place.

ADT have played at the highest level of Peruvian football on fourteen occasions, from 1980 Torneo Descentralizado until 1991 Torneo Descentralizado consecutively and then again in 2022 and 2023. After the 2023 season, ADT qualified for the 2024 Copa Sudamericana for the first time, being their first international tournament. As a result, the club decided to renovate their stadium Union Tarma with a cost of 30 million soles and would be completed in 2025.[2]
