Prokocim Kraków
Prokocim Kraków (Klub Sportowy Kolejarz-Prokocim Kraków) is a Polish football club based in Bieżanów-Prokocim district of Kraków. They currently play in the Polish regional league, the seventh tier of the Polish football league. HistoryThe history of the club dates back to 1921, when Franciszek Międzik and Adolf Furgalski organized a sports club called "Krakus" in the village of Prokocim near Krakow. The first colours of the club were pink shirts with green insets. In 1924 "KS Krakus" merged with "KS Orlątko" under the name "KS Świtezianka". In 1933 "KS Świtezianka", after the merger with "KS Orion", the name was changed to "KS Prokocim". In 1949, by virtue of a political decision of the Central Committee of the PZPR, the organizational system of Polish sport was changed, assigning new names to the existing clubs. And so KS Prokocim became "Kolejarz Prokocim" (EN: Railwayman Prokocim), and as the district's inhabitants mostly worked on the railroad, the name stuck and remained even after 1955 (when most clubs returned to their historical names).[3] Name chronology:
