In 2009, they promoted to Gamma Ethniki. During the 2011–12 season Rouf were active in the Football League 2 - South in Greece and spent their third consecutive season in the third tier of Greek football. On occasion the club has been criticised[clarification needed] for being a "mesh up" of several Greek clubs including Olympiacos Piraeus and Panathinaikos.
The average attendance at Rouf's home games in the 2011–12 season was 467, An increase on the 2010–11 season by 109. Dimitris Arnoutis is the manager and head coach of the club and has enjoyed a run of success since taking over from Michalis Papadopoulos in late 2007. He is the longest serving manager at the club since Costas Gianakis from 1956 to 1970.
