History

FK Bregalnica was formed in 1921 and currently play in the Macedonian First League. They are named Bregalnica after the 2nd largest river in North Macedonia and their nickname is The Blues because of the club colours being predominantly dark blue. They play their games at Gradski Stadion Štip ground, a stadium capable of hosting 8,000 seated fans, plus an addition of space for standing fans of 2,000 fans. The club's most successful years were those between 1964 and 1984, when the club were champion of the Macedonian Republic League four times and won the Macedonian Cup in 1981 (these were regional Yugoslav competitions back then). The good times did not last however, the next few years saw the decline of FK Bregalnica, distinguished by the loss of their star players. With the arrival of the new sponsor Kit-Go Bregalnica plan to play European football in the next two seasons with predominantly homegrown players.
