WKS Grodno
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wojskowy Klub Sportowy Grodno (WKS Grodno) was a Polish football team, located in Grodno, Poland (now Belarus), on the historic territory of Kresy Wschodnie (Polish Eastern Borderlands).
The club was founded in 1934, when the team of “Cresovia” Grodno merged with a few local clubs. A year later, WKS won championships of the Białystok A-Class, however, it never succeeded in winning championships of northeastern Poland, year by year losing to the local powerhouse, Śmigły Wilno. Grodno’s side was supported by the garrison of the Polish Army and it ceased to exist after Soviet invasion of Poland (1939).
