History

The club was founded on 27 June 1947 by the merger of three local rivals. Their first notable result was reaching the quarter-finals of the 1951 Yugoslav Cup, where they were heavily defeated by Dinamo Zagreb.
In 1958, the club joined the reformed Yugoslav Second League, competing in Group East for two seasons. They promptly returned to the league in 1961, spending the next six seasons in the second tier. In 1966–67, the club finished as champions and earned promotion to the Yugoslav First League for the first time ever. They placed eight in their debut appearance in the top flight. The club subsequently ended bottom of the table in 1968–69 and dropped to the Second League.
In 1973, the club returned to the Yugoslav First League. They spent two seasons in the top flight, but suffered relegation in 1974–75. The club went on to compete in the Second League until 1990. They ended their comeback season in fourth place, their highest ever league finish.
After the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1992, the club competed in the First League of FR Yugoslavia for eight consecutive seasons. They placed fifth in the 1996–97 season, qualifying for the UEFA Intertoto Cup. The club was relegated to the Second League in 1999–2000. They were soon relegated to the Serbian League Vojvodina in 2002. The club was dissolved on 11 December 2005.
