In 1940, Longa '30 had about 50 members, in 1950 about 500. Longa had its grounds at a location where later the sports hall of Lichtenvoorde was built. In 1949, Longa moved to the local Raadhuisstraat.

In 2011 it became champion of the Eerste Klasse Sunday East section. As a result, Longa was first of the Achterhoek region to reach the Hoofdklasse. After three seasons it relegated back to the Eerste Klasse. In 2019 it won another championship in the Eerste Klasse 1E, after beating the other first place contender, SC Bemmel, 1–2. This Eerste Klasse championship brought Longa back to the Hoofdklasse.
