A football section was added to the OLLS (Charter of the Ski Sport Amateurs Society) in 1911. Twelve years later the club came under the wing of the Soviet Army and changed its name to OPPV (Experimental and demonstration grounds of Vsevobuch). For the remainder of the Soviet era it would be linked to the military and its  Koni nickname is derived from the early players being assigned to cavalry units. In 1928, OPPV was merged into a new club, CDKA (Central House of Red Army). In 1950, as the Red Army was officially renamed to the Soviet Army, so was the club renamed to CDSA (Central House of the Soviet Army). The name changed again in 1955 to reflect Soviet political restructuring, this time to CSK MO (Central Sport Club of the Ministry of Defence). Another final change, in 1960, brought the club to its current name - CSKA (Central Sports Club of the Army). CSKA are the first Russian club to win a European trophy, that being the 2005 UEFA Cup.
