In all those seasons, the club only qualified two times for the competition's second round, by winning their previous series. In 2007, Fribourg Olympic competed in the European-wide secondary competition, the 2007–08 ULEB Cup regular season, but they ended up in the last position of their group.

On 4 October 2018, they eventually qualified to the competition's regular season phase, after winning three successive qualifying rounds against Avtodor Saratov, Donar, and Sakarya.
