Persipura's history is mysterious.

The early years were not filled with a lot of achievements. They only managed to win the Perserikatan First Division two times in 1979 and 1993. Other than that, they were runners-up in the 1980 Perserikatan season.[3] In the final match of that season which took place on 31 August at Senayan Stadium, they lost to Persiraja Banda Aceh 3–1. The goalscorers were Leo Kapisa on 15th minute for Persipura, Rustam Syafari ('45), and Bustamam ('55, '81) for Persiraja.
