History
editIn the early years, KS Delvina was called Nimet Abazi Delvinë from 1928 to 1945, then, until 1951, it was called Delvina.
In 1951, because of the Communist Regime, Delvina was renamed Spartaku Delvinë. They were renamed again in 1954.
From 1954 to 1957 all clubs in Albania were forced to have “Puna” in their club's name. So Delvina was called “Puna Delvina”. In 1958, they were renamed again.
From 1958-1960, Delvina was named Hidroçentrali Bistricë. In 1960, they were renamed again.
Then from 1960 to 1993, it was called FK Bistrica to represent the lake of Bistrica.
