Saratov sits on the Volga, a city that has run through Energiya, Lokomotiv and Trud as club names before Sokol stuck in 1962. The line runs back to Dinamo Saratov's first Soviet championship appearance in 1946.

The best of it came in 2000, when Alexander Koreshkov took the club to the First Division title and up into the top flight, with Andrei Fedkov finishing that season as its top scorer on 25 goals. Sokol held on in the Premier League for two seasons, finishing eighth in 2001. Further back, in 1966/67, it had already reached a Soviet Cup semi-final. Among those who passed through Saratov was Oleg Veretennikov, who went on to become the leading scorer in the history of Russian championships, though his mark was made after his time at the club.

Sokol has since settled into the lower tiers. Home games are played at the Lokomotiv stadium, built for 15,000 but currently registered for 11,359 with sections of the ground closed off. Saratov's derby runs east along the Volga to Astragan and Volgar, while the trip south to Peschanokopskoye and Chayka is known as the "bird derby".

The club has not been back in the Premier League since 2002, and the First Division title from 2000 remains its only one.
