The Golden Star

Based on an idea of Umberto Agnelli, the honor of Golden Star for Sports Excellence was introduced to recognize sides that have won multiple championships or other honours by the display of gold stars on their team badges and jerseys.

The current officially-sanctioned Fortuna Liga stars are:

ŠK Slovan Bratislava received in 2009
MŠK Žilina received in 2010
