On 4 February 2020, Bangladesh Football Federation gave the green signal for the club to directly enter professional football through the Bangladesh Championship League, without having to play through the semi-professional lower divisions in Dhaka.
Championship era
Fortis Sporting Academy was originally slated to embark on their domestic league journey from the 2019–20 Bangladesh Championship League season. However, after the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the cancellation of domestic football, they were compelled to postpone their long-awaited league debut for an additional year. Before the start of the 2020–21 league season, the club under the name Fortis FC had completed the signings of ten players with Premier League experience. Notable among them were Khan Mohammad Tara, Uttam Barua and former national team striker Towhidul Alam Towhid. They also appointed Akbor Hossain Ridon as head-coach.

On 1 March 2021, the club registered their first victory, by defeating Dhaka Wanderers 3–2 as, striker Mohammad Hasanuzzaman registered the club's first professional league goal. During their debut season, Fortis finished in third place and were only 2 points off from the top spot.
Before the start of the 2021–22 Championship League, president Shahin Hasan informed that the club recruited players from the then ongoing Chittagong Football League, and only retained 15 players from their previous campaign. Jahidur Rahman Milon was appointed as the new head coach and former senior national team defender Atiqur Rahman Meshu was added to the club's coaching staff as an assistant coach. On 24 April 2022, Fortis recorded a goalless draw against newcomers Azampur FC, which meant that the club were unbeaten in their previous 31 league games. On 1 June 2022, Fortis secured promotion to the Bangladesh Premier League with two games to go, thrashing Kawran Bazar 5–0, with forward Mohammad Hasanuzzaman scoring a hattrick. Fortis finished the league season with the least goals conceded, and veteran keeper Uttam Barua topped the cleansheet charts.
