history

In 1891, on the initiative of the students Andra Nikolić and Hugo Buli, a gymnastics club called Soko ("The Falcon") was founded in the capital Belgrade , paving the way for the later establishment of the first football department of a sports club in the region. The sport of football came from the German Empire to the Kingdom of Serbia (1878-1918) in the spring of 1896 , when Buli brought the first football from Berlin to the capital. He showed the sports equipment to his friends at the Soko gymnastics club and on May 12, 1896 founded its soccer department.

Although the founding of the SK Soko football club only emerged years later , the football department within the Soko sports club from 1896 is considered the first football formation in Southeastern Europe . Seven years later, on April 18, 1903, to be precise, the SK Soko developed from this and later renamed FK BASK. This was one of the leading clubs in the country until 1917. In 1918 the club took part in the South Italian Championship as Soko Pro Roma and was able to win it. Then you played again in the league system of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (1918-1928) and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1929-1941).

For the Football World Cup in Uruguay in 1930 , SK Soko sent the goalkeeper Milovan Jakšić , who earned the name " El grande Milovan " ( Spanish for "The great Milovan") with good performances , as well as the captain of the Yugoslav national team , the defender Milutin Ivković . Yugoslavia was eliminated in the semi-finals against eventual world champions Uruguay . In 1933 the name was changed to FK BASK. From the Second World War (1939-1945) the decline of the club began. From this period until 1953 they played under the name FK Senjak . After the Second World War you took part in the minor competitions of Socialist Yugoslavia (1945-1992). I improved this during the times of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1992–2003) and Serbia and Montenegro (2003–2006).

In 2005 the country's second division was split into two groups. From now on, BASK took part in the Serbian Prva liga , which should remain the second highest division in the country even after Serbia's independence in 2006. The club played there until 2007, then was third class again until 2010 and made it through to first class within a year. In 2011 the club managed to move up to the Superliga for the first time after first place in the Prva liga , but BASK was denied the class jump due to financial problems or non-fulfilled financial requirements, whereby FK Novi Pazar took its place in the top division of Serbian football was allowed, while the BASK had to step into the third-class Srpska liga Beograd .

Stadion

The stadium Careva ćuprija ("Stadium Kaisers-Brücke") is a "pure" football stadium and home of the club, with a capacity of 3,020  seats . The stadium was renovated in 2011 for over 300,000 euros . The first game after the renovation took place on March 12, 2011. It was both the opening game and the league game. The match between FK BASK and FK Bežanija on the 18th matchday of the Prva liga , the second highest division in the country, which ended goalless, was the first professional football match officially played on artificial turf in Serbia .
