A year later the club made it to the round of 32 of the Yugoslav Cup. 1957 came the renewed promotion and Radnik played from now on in the Novi Sad zone .

2000s
2005 succeeded the championship title in the second Bosnian division and one rose to the Premijer Liga . However, the relegation did not succeed in the following season and so they played second class again.
