The club was founded in 1997 by General Sao Sokha, and was originally based in Phnom Penh, under the name Preah Khan Reach. In 2011, the club won their first major honour, the 2011 Hun Sen Cup, after beating Build Bright United by 2–0. Sam El Nasa and Khoun Laboravy scored the goals. The club managed to retain their title in the 2012 Hun Sen Cup after winning against Nagacorp by 2–1. In May 2013, the club was renamed as Preah Khan Reach Svay Rieng, when the decision was made to relocate to Svay Rieng by Dy Vichea. In the first season under the new name, they ended up becoming the 2013 Cambodian League champions. The club automatically qualified for the 2014 AFC President's Cup, being placed against Nepali Manang Marshyangdi Club and Mongolian Erchim. However, Svay Rieng lost both of their fixtures and finished last in the group table.

In 2019, Svay Rieng won their second league title and qualified to the 2020 AFC Cup qualifying play-offs, playing against Laos side Master 7. Svay Rieng ended up winning both of the qualifying matches with 7–1 on aggregate and qualified to the group stage. The club was then placed in Group G alongside Philippines club Ceres–Negros, Indonesian club Bali United and Vietnamese club Than Quảng Ninh. On 25 February 2020, the club recorded their first win in the AFC competitions after defeating Bali United by 2–1. However, due to the rising cases of the COVID-19 pandemic, the tournament was cancelled.

Three-peat league champions and back to back AFC Challenge League finals (2023–2026)

Svay Rieng then won their third league title during the 2023–24 season, qualified for the 2024–25 AFC Challenge League and also participated in the returning 2024–25 ASEAN Club Championship. The club faced off against Lao side Young Elephants in the ASEAN Club Championship play-off round where they won 8–3 on aggregate, thus qualifying to Group A alongside Malaysian Terengganu, Thai BG Pathum United, Indonesian PSM Makassar, Vietnamese Đông Á Thanh Hóa and Myanmar Shan United. On 21 August 2024, Svay Rieng won 3–2 against Terengganu at the Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin Stadium. Svay Rieng was knocked out of the competition after failing to qualify to the next round.

In the 2024–25 AFC Challenge League, Svay Rieng were placed alongside Indonesian side Madura United and Mongolian side SP Falcons in the group stage. The club won 2–1 against SP Falcons and lost 2-1 to Madura, but still qualified for the quarter-finals as group runners-up. In the quarter-finals, Svay Rieng faced Myanmar's Shan United, ultimately winning 7–4 on aggregate, and in the semi-finals they defeated Madura United 6–3 on aggregate. In what was Svay Rieng's first continental final, they faced FK Arkadag of Turkmenistan but lost to the Turkmen side 2–1 after extra time. Svay Rieng then went on to retain the league title for three times in row during the 2025–26 season where the club also went on to win a domestic double after winning the 2025–26 Hun Sen Cup after defeating Visakha in the final.
