Our teams have been successful in 3rd division leagues organized by the Liberia Football Association in Monrovia and other regions in Liberia.

Club History
Fourth (4th) Division
The club played in the 4th division league for three season as Pelima FC, from 2008–2010 in the Paynesville sub-committee league. After splendid performance from the club, we got promoted to the third division league in 2010.
Third (3rd) Division
Muscat FC Liberia continue its splendid performance in the third division league (St. Paul bridge sub-committee) for three seasons and got promoted to the second division in 2013. The team played nineteen (19) league games, winning 16, draw 2 and lost 1 to the champion team of Lofa. The team performance attracted the partnership of two young Liberian (Mr. Charles B. Massaley and Mr. Flomo B. Gborkorquellie) to assist Mr. Theo Yaba Collins who was the sole sponsor of this club. With the combine support of these three young and passionate Liberians, Muscat FC Liberia was greatly supported in securing promotion to the second division.
Second (2nd) Division
Muscat FC played in the second division league in 2014 successfully in the first phase, earning the second spot on the league table. During the second phase, Muscat was unlucky to have six points deducted from the league table for allegedly fielding an illegal player thereby awarding the points to Gardnesville. At the end of the league season (2014), Muscat FC was relegated to the third division league. In March 2015, we lost one of our promising stars Opor Thompson.
