Konin already has a football identity split between Górnik, in white and blue, and Medyk, in white and black; Start built its own name in a sport neither of them plays.

That climb took years to show results. The team's promotion out of the II Liga in the 2021/2022 season followed a spell in which sixth place, reached under coach Marek Salzman in 2016/2017, had stood as the best finish in the club's history. Getting past that mark meant winning the league outright rather than chasing a top-half table position. The next step came this year, when Start secured promotion to the I Liga for the 2025/2026 season — the first time the senior side has reached that level.

Behind the first team, the club's youth structure produced its own landmark: the girls' side reached the last 16 of the Polish Youth Championships in 2024/2025. Dariusz Pietrzyk presides over the association, formally registered as SSRiR Start Konin, running both the senior and junior programmes under one roof.

Matches are played at the Hala Sportowa MOSiR on ulica Księdza Popiełuszki.
