Men's football team

The club was reactivated in 2007, and spent most of its 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 in 2010–11. As a result of the expansion of the Ekstraliga in 2010–11, a third-place finish in the 2009–10 I liga was enough to reach the promotion play-offs, which they won. The women's section played in the top level Ekstraliga Kobiet in the 2010–11, 2011–12 and 2014–15 season. Before the 2015–16 season, the team withdrew from I liga. [3]

In 2015, the women's section was disbanded, [4] citing financial problems. There were plans to transfer the team to GKS Katowice, [5] but eventually GKS re-founded their own women's section. [6]
