Founded in 1999 after the establishment of Lembata Regency on 12 October 1999 as a result of the separation from East Flores Regency, the PSSI Lembata Regency Association was formed as the governing body of this club. After a month of the founding of Lembata Regency, they participated in the 1999 El Tari Memorial Cup in Ende Regency. The squad consists of Ryan Walili, Ansi Lensa, Inosius Sanjaya, Jou Kasim, Mukin, Yoseph Lanjar, Husain Atamuan, Gomez Luan, Salem Mustafa, and Herri Rungkat.[1]
Persebata for the first time had the best achievement at 2022 El Tari Memorial Cup (as Liga 3 East Nusa Tenggara), as hosts they managed to reach the final but unfortunately lost to Perse Ende after drawing 2–2 and losing on penalties 2–3 at the Gelora 99 Stadium, Lembata.[2]
In the 2025 El Tari Memorial Cup (as Liga 4 East Nusa Tenggara), they again achieved the runner-up title after losing in the final to Bintang Timur Atambua with a score of 2–4 in the penalty shootout after drawing 2–2 in normal time at the Oepoi Stadium, Kupang. However, they have the right to represent East Nusa Tenggara with two other clubs, namely Bintang Timur Atambua as champion and Perseftim East Flores as third place.[3]
In the 2024–25 Liga 4 national phase, in the first round they managed to Group P winners with a result of 2 wins and 1 draw, and ensured qualification to the second round, all matches were held in Kompyang Sujana Stadium and Ngurah Rai Stadium, Denpasar.[4] In the second round held at the same venued, they again qualified as Group X winners with a result of 2 wins and 1 draw, advancing to the third round.[5] On 14 May 2025, Persebata secured promotion to Liga Nusantara for the first time in their history from 2025–26 season after draw against Persika Karanganyar 1–1 at Sultan Agung Stadium in Bantul, which was the last match in Group B due to difference goal. They managed to advance to the fourth round with the status of second place in the group.[6] In the fourth round, Persebata was included in Group 1 along with Persitara North Jakarta, Tri Brata Rafflesia, and Perseden Denpasar.[7]
To play their home games in Liga Nusantara, they chose to base themselves at the Oepoi Stadium in Kupang, this was due to the lack of readiness of the Gelora 99 Stadium and supporting facilities in Lembata.[8]
