Established in 1960, the Sooners began play at the intermediate level (in the Ottawa and District Intermediate Football League).  They joined the junior ranks in 1962, beginning play in the Interprovincial Junior Football League and winning the league title.

The Sooners played at the senior level in 1970 and 1971 in the Senior Ottawa Football Union, again winning the league championship in their first season when they defeated the St. Catharines' Rams 54-30 in a two-game total-point contest.  They returned to the junior level in 1972, becoming members of the Quebec Junior Football Conference for two years, then the Ontario Football Conference starting in 1974.  They have since won the Canadian Junior Football Championship on four occasions; 1974, 1979 1984 and 1992.   They were runners-up on nine occasions (see scores below).

The Sooners moved to the Quebec Major Junior Football League in 1996 for financial reasons and have won that league's Championship three times (1997, 2001 and 2002).  They would rejoin the Ontario Football Conference in 2009 and win that Conference's championship in the their first year back.
