The FC Vysocina Jihlava is a Czech football club from just over 50,000 inhabitants, the former mining town of Jihlava . In addition to the city name, the club name also includes the region Vysočina (in German: Oberland ).
Club history
After the founding of a sports club with a football department in the PAL Jihlava machine building plant, the new team started in the lowest division in the region in 1948, the II. Třída. As early as 1950, the club was promoted to the district class.
The club stayed at this level for almost four decades until it was promoted to Divize (Group D), the fourth-highest division, in 1988/89. After only two years, the next promotion followed, this time in the 3rd division (MSFL). In 1999/00 the team landed on a second place in the MSFL that was actually not eligible for promotion, but rose to the second division due to the renunciation of NH Ostrava.
In the 2nd division Jihlava could always keep up with the front and finished second at the end of the 2004/05 season, which entitled to promotion to the Gambrinus League . After only one season in the first division, the team was relegated. With second place in the Druhá fotbalová liga 2011/12, the second Czech league, FC Vysočina Jihlava returned to the Gambrinus league . In the 2012/13 season Jihlava finished tenth, the 8th place in the 2013/14 season was the greatest success in the club's history.
