Koà ¡arkaà ¡ki klub Vojvodina Srbijagas (), commonly referred to as KK Vojvodina Srbijagas, was a men's professional basketball club based in Novi Sad, Serbia. The club participated in the Basketball League of Serbia and Adriatic League. They played their home games in SPC Vojvodina.
The club was also known as Nova Vojvodina () to distinguish it from the same-name town rivals KK Vojvodina. The club disbanded before the 2016âÂÂ17 season due to a bad financial situation, when the sponsor, Srbijagas, ceased their investments in the team. It was not a member of the Vojvodina Sport Society, but a successor of the KK Beobanka and KK Novi Sad clubs.
KK Beobanka was a club based in Belgrade, FR Yugoslavia (now Serbia). The club competed in the First League of FR Yugoslavia from 1995 to 2000. Their matches were played at the Palata sportova. Their biggest success was the participation in the 1997âÂÂ98 Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Cup final where they lost to the BuduÃÂnost. They participated in European competitions â the FIBA KoraàCup (1996âÂÂ97, and 1998âÂÂ99) and the FIBA EuroCup (1997âÂÂ98). It was coached by Darko Ruso. The club was legally disbanded in summer of 2000, relocated to Novi Sad, and renamed to KK NIS Vojvodina.
Shortly afterward, the Petroleum Industry of Serbia (NIS) took over the founding rights and became the owner of the entire capital of Beobanka/Vojvodina Srbijagas. Thus was created KK NIS Vojvodina before the start of the 2000âÂÂ01 season. In their debut season in the YUBA League, they finished in eighth place during the regular season, and qualified for the playoffs, where they were eliminated in the first round by KK BuduÃÂnost Podgorica after two games.
In 2006, the club changed its name back to the simpler KK Vojvodina Srbijagas. In 2011, the club was merged with another local team, KK Novi Sad. The merger was done to help strengthen the financial position of the clubs. In the summer of 2016, however, Vojvodina Srbijagas went into bankruptcy and subsequently it was dissolved.
Sports Center Vojvodina is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Novi Sad and it has a capacity of 11,500 seats.
