History

Diyarbakırspor was formed after the merger of Diclespor and Yıldızspor on 24 June 1968. Their club colours were red and green; red for Yıldızspor, green for Diclespor. Nejat Cemiloğlu was the first president of the club. The club competed in the 2.Lig from 1968 to 1975.

Under the guidance of president Ali Kahraman and vice-president Şeyhmus Akçadağ, Diyarbakırspor earned double promotion to the 1.Lig in 1976 and 1977. Diyarbakirspor were the first Turkish club to achieve the feat of double promotion, and second in the world, behind Nottingham Forest.

In the second season of top-flight football, Diyarbakırspor spent five weeks at the top of the table. However, they finished in fifth place at the end of the season. They also qualified for the Balkans Cup. Diyarbakırspor were relegated for the first time in 1980, earned promotion back to the top-flight the following season, and were relegated once more the next season. They spent three years in the 2.Lig before winning promotion to the 1.Lig.

At the end of the 1986–87 season, Diyarbakırspor finished with a record for lowest points in the 1. Lig with 11. The club would compete in the 2. Lig until 2001 before earning promotion back to the Süper Lig. Diyarbakırspor spent 5 years in the Süper Lig until relegation in 2006.

After finishing second in the 2008–09 TFF First League, Diyarbakırspor were promoted back to the Süper Lig, but finished 16th in the 2009–10 season to be relegated back to the TFF First League. In the 2010–11 season, the club finished last in the league to be relegated to the TFF Second League for the first time since 1976. In the 2011–12 season, they finished in the relegation zone to be relegated for the third consecutive season.

Later on, Diyarbakırspor withdrew from the Regional Amateur League, then returned to the Diyarbakır 1st Amateur League in the 2015–16 season, where they finished last and relegated to the Diyarbakır 2nd Amateur League. In the 2017–18 season, they gained promotion through play-offs, and in the 2019–20 season, they returned to the Regional Amateur League.
