The club was founded in 1924[1] and in the 1970â71 season won the Republic League. Since the independence, the club was in the Second League until the 1999â00 season when debuted in the top flight. That season was immediately relegated and after one season in the second division won promotion again, this time lasting for two consecutive seasons. Kumanovo has spent a total of 3 seasons in the 1.
