OCK spent 13 seasons in the first division (professional level). They clung on for five years but eventually were relegated.

Since the 1999–2000 season OCK have played in the third division, where they been fighting for survival for a number of years. With constant coach changes, the club has struggled to achieve the consistency required for promotion back to League division II.

=OCK has played on many occasions against the largest and most important teams in Tunisian football. Their playing record against these teams is as follows:
Sfax derbies
All OCK games against Club Sportif Sfaxien, Sfax Railways Sports, Stade Sportif Sfaxien and Club Ahly Sfaxien are considered derbies of the Sfax region. Because Kerkennah is an archipelago of Sfax, there is a big rivalry between these teams. Another major rivalry was between OCK and Club Sportif Sfaxien during the 1990s (the glory years of OCK).
Island derbies
The games of OCK against Espoir Sportif de Jerba Midoun, AS Djerba (Houmt Souk) and Union Sportive d`Ajim are the only games between two islands in Tunisian football, because the other two smaller islands of Tunisia are not represented by teams in the national football competition.
Kerkennah Derby
OCK also takes part in the "Kerkennah Derby" against Kerkennah Sports (KS), but mainly on friendly level. There is a good atmosphere between the two clubs and no rivalry.
