TTSC UMMC played two times in the final and in both occasions lost to Fakel-Gazprom Orenburg (2018/19 and 2011/12).

Fakel-Gazprom Orenburg won the big trophy five times including the latest in season 2018/19. 1 FC Saarbrücken still awaits for the trophy. Last season they reached the semi final before Pandemic halted all games.
