Latvian First League
In 1997, after 4 years of silence, the team was reformed as "FK Ilūkste" and took part in the Latvian First League, finishing in the 9th position. In 1998 the club's name was once again changed – this time to "Ceļinieks" – as the club managed to grab the 4th position of the league table at the end of the championship. The next season saw them get relegated from the Latvian First League, as they finished in the 7th position, receding to the Latvian Second League. The club played in the 3rd tier of Latvian football until 2006, when they won the championship and were once again promoted to the Latvian First League. Before the start of the 2007 Latvian First League season the club was renamed "Ilūkste/BJSS". The club withdrew from the championship in mid-season due to financial difficulties, and they were once again relegated to the Latvian Second League. In 2009 and 2010 they won the Latvian Second League, but lost in the promotion play-offs, failing to earn a promotion. The promotion to the Latvian First League came in 2011, when "Ilūkste/BJSS" once again won the league and the play-offs as well.
