Bohdaneč won promotion to the country's top flight, the Czech First League, after finishing second in the 1996–97 Czech 2. Liga.[1] The club subsequently featured in the 1997–98 Czech First League, finishing bottom of the league and winning only two of their thirty matches.[1]

During a 1999 Czech 2. Liga away match against Prostějov, club owner Jiří Novák ordered his players to walk off the pitch, with 43 minutes played and the score 2–1 to the hosts, citing the poor performance of referee Michal Paták as the reason.[2] According to a spokesman from the ČMFS, this was the first time a professional team had abandoned a game in the league.[3] The club was subsequently fined 300,000 CZK by the football association and the match was awarded 3–0 to Prostějov.[4] The club ceased to exist in 2000, following a merger with Slovan Pardubice.[5]
