Upon its formation, it was entered into the Qatari Second Division. After winning the second division title in 2004, they earned a spot in the top tier, the Qatar Stars League. Shortly after, the club was renamed to its current name, Al Kharaitiyat, on 19 October 2004 by a decision of the vice-president of the Qatar Olympic Committee in order to better represent the district it is located in. The team was relegated from the Stars League in the 2004–05 season after a 3–3 draw with Al Ahli on 6 April 2005 with two matches left to play in the season.

In 2008 the team was once again promoted to the Stars League.
