About FK Baník Ratíškovice

FK Baník Ratíškovice is a Czech football club based in the village of Ratíškovice in South Moravia, founded in 1930 as DSK Ratíškovice. In its early decades, the club developed through regional competitions and gradually became an established team in Moravian football. Over time, it went through several name changes reflecting political and organizational shifts, eventually becoming FK Baník Ratíškovice in its modern form.

The club’s most successful period came in the second half of the 20th century and around the turn of the millennium. Baník reached the Czechoslovak Second League in the 1959–60 and 1962–63 seasons, and later returned to higher levels of Czech football in the late 1990s. Its peak achievement was reaching the final of the Czech Cup in 1999–2000, where it finished as runner-up after losing to Slovan Liberec.

After being relegated from the second tier in the early 2000s, the club faced financial difficulties and continued to drop into lower regional divisions. Despite these setbacks, FK Baník Ratíškovice has remained active in Czech amateur football, maintaining its local identity and continuing to represent the Ratíškovice community in regional competitions.
