Košarkaški klub Vojvodina (Serbian Cyrillic: Кошаркашки клуб Војводина, English: Vojvodina Basketball Club), commonly referred to as KK Vojvodina or simply Vojvodina, is a professional basketball club based in Novi Sad, Serbia, and the major part of the Vojvodina multi-sport club. The club competes in the top-tier Basketball League of Serbia.

History

[edit]

During the 2000s and early 2010s, the club was also known as Old Vojvodina to be distinguished from the dissolved and much better known town rivals Vojvodina Srbijagas. At that time, the club functioned as Vojvodina Srbijagas's reserve team. After their dissolving in 2016, Vojvodina received many their players and got promoted to the Basketball League of Serbia for the 2017–18 BLS season.

On 6 June 2022, the club elected Željko Rebrača as their new club's president.[2][3]
