FK Bor (Serbian Cyrillic: ФK Бop) is a football club based in Bor, Serbia.
The club was founded in 1919 as a Serbian-French sports society under the name Asotiation Sportive Bor or ASB for short. It was managed by a Frenchman named Loren, the director of mechanical services in Bor mining company. Not much is recorded about the early club activity, until the first official game played jn 1920. First ASB's head coach was Gallois, who also played for the club as well as for France national football team. At the beginning of the Second World War, the club was renamed BSK. This was the most successful club in the area of the Eastern Serbia and achieved good results in the first part of Serbian football competitions.
BSK and Bor merged in 1946, to form a club with the name of Radnički. The club officially changed its name to FK Bor and was engaged in the first post-war organized competitions. In the meantime, in the name of the club was added the prefix "rudarski" and the club was known by the name (RFK Bor) until 1974, year when the club erased the name prefix.
Victories over Radnički Niš by 7:0 and Radnički Kragujevac by 9:1 are good examples of some great exhibitions made in the 50's. In 1963 the club entered to the Second league, and since then, several times, the club participated in the top division, the Yugoslav First League, having participated, in the season of 1968/69, in the European Cup Winners Cup.
