Early years

Skalica players in 1921.

The beginnings of football in Skalica date back to 1918, when it was played on the field near the railway station, but it was only after the foundation of ŠK Skalica in 1920 that football in Skalica began to develop. At that time, the club maintained close ties with football teams in neighboring Moravia. On April 6, 1921, the Sports Club's founding meeting was held in the hotel, and on June 4 of the same year, the founding general meeting was held. In 1924, large investments were made in the field that the Sports Club used. At that time, many matches were already being played in Skalica.

Promotion to First Division: 2015–2016

MFK Skalica reached Fortuna Liga despite defeat 0:2 by MFK Zemplín Michalovce in closing match of 2. Liga on 13 June 2015 and they surprised everyone by securing the second spot in the league and securing the first historical promotion to the highest football tier in Slovakia as well as MFK Zemplín Michalovce. Skalica replaced FC VSS Košice in the competition, which was relegated despite finishing 6th in the table due to financial problems. Skalica thus achieved the greatest success in its history. In its first season in the top flight, they finished in 12th place and was relegated to the 2nd league after getting 24 points from 33 games.

Success in the Slovak Cup: 2016–2017

While still playing in the 2. Liga, Skalica was able to get to the final of the 2016–17 Slovak Cup, where they met with ŠK Slovan Bratislava, to which Skalica ultimately lost 3–0 in the Poprad stadium.

Recent years: 2022–present

In 2022, Skalica was promoted again to the top flight, replacing FK Senica, who were not granted a license for this competition. In their return to the league, Skalica avoided relegation after getting 40 points in 32 games, finishing in 8th place altogether. In 2024, the club’s logo was rebranded. In 2025, Mário Hollý, Skalica’s starting midfielder, got a 3 month ban for kicking an assistant referee.
