Men's football team

The club was reactivated in 2007, and spent most of his time in the klasa B (eighth league level). [1]

Women's football team

The women's section started in the 3rd tier, but has managed two promotions and won the promotion to the Ekstraliga Kobiet in 2010–11. As a result of the expansion of the Ekstraliga in 2010–11, a third-place finish in the 2nd division 2009-10 was enough to reach the promotion playoffs, which were won. The women's section played in the top level Ekstraliga Kobiet in 2010–11, 2011–12 and 2014–15. Before the 2015–16 season, the team withdrew from the second-level league. [2]

In 2015 the women's section was disbanded [3] citing financial problems. There were plans to transfer the team to GKS Katowice, [4] but eventually GKS re-founded their own women's section.[ citation needed ]
