Velež Mostar

Fudbalski klub Velež Mostar is a professional football club based in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The club has a history of being one of the most successful clubs from Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was founded on 26 June 1922. The club currently plays at Rođeni Stadium (7,000 capacity), but its historic stadium is the Bijeli Brijeg (9,000 capacity). Due to the divisions between Bosniak and Croat territories, FK Velež Mostar lost its previous home ground of Bijeli Brijeg Stadium. That stadium was largely used by FK Velež Mostar during the glory days of the club, when they triumphed in the 1981 and 1986 Yugoslav cups. The club also reached the quarter-final stage of the 1974–75 UEFA Cup.
