History
In 1910, when the football leagues had been established for a number of years, the Russian rulers of Poland gave permission for the formation of the "Radomskie Towarzystwo Sportowe" (lit: The Sporting Fellowship of Radom). The newly formed RTS was made up of five sections, namely football, cycling, tennis, ice skating and gymnastics. By this, time Milan had been crowned champions of Italy on three separate occasions (1901, 1906, 1907) whilst Poland would have to wait until 1921 to see Cracovia crowned as its first Champions. On 18 December of the same year, the Polish national side lost 1:0 to Bulgaria in their first ever international game. It was a year before the footballers of RKS played their first game - a 5:2 loss to Stella Warszawa. These were the beginnings of the club now known as RKS Radomiak.
