History

The football club Jedinstvo from Mali Zvornik, Serbia was founded on July 2, 1967. The first formed sport association in Mali Zvornik was named Partizan,and later on that base was formed football club. One of the primary names of club were Turbina (according to the hidroelectricity nearby), then after some time club was renamed to Jedinstvo (means unity), name that pictures the multietnical tolerance of this region in that period (there were lot of Serbs,Muslims and other nations who came here to work on building of the hidroelectricity). The most successful period in the long tradition of the club was in the period from 1980 to 1990, when the club competed in the federal rank of the former SFRY, in the Second Serbian League (4th level).
