In 2010, Bucharest Warriors was invited to its first official competition, the Central European Football League. On April 11, the Warriors hosted Istanbul Cavaliers in a qualification game for the respective competition. Also, one week after the game, Bucharest Warriors has begun their first campaign in an official competition organized by the EFAF, the Challenge Cup.
