Klub malog fudbala Ekonomac (Serbian Cyrillic: Клуб малог фудбала Економац), commonly known as Ekonomac Kragujevac (Serbian Cyrillic: Економац Крагујевац), is a Serbian futsal club based in Kragujevac. Currently competing in the Prva Futsal Liga, which is the premier futsal league in Serbia.
Futsal Club Ekonomac was founded on 7 November 2000 by a group of students from the Faculty of Economics of the university of University of Kragujevac; with professor Veroljub Dugalić at its front along with a group of his university colleagues. The club started competing in the lowest futsal league of Serbia at that time, with the goal of popularization of this sport at the university and in Kragujevac. During the next year the club made a big success and, with the reinforcement of new players, qualified to play in what was at that time known as the Republic League of Serbia. Since the 2004–05 season Ekonomac is competing in the highest league ranking.
In the 2006–07 season Ekonomac finished as runners-up in the national league. In 2008, Ekonomac won the Balkan Cup and two months later, they won their first Serbian championship. In the following seasons (2009–10, 2010–11, and 2011–12), Ekonomac defended the Serbian championship title. In the 2012–13 season Ekonomac won its first national futsal cup of Serbia. By winning the national championship in the same season, 2012–13, Ekonomac became the most successful futsal club of all time in Serbia. As the most successful futsal club in the history of this sport in the country, Ekonomac continued with what might be the clubs best season so far, by winning the championship in the 2013–14 season with an undefeated record (only one draw). In the 2014–15 season, Ekonomac won the Serbian championship again as well as reaching the elite round of the UEFA Futsal Cup.
The club made its first appearance in the UEFA Futsal Cup in 2008 when they reached the elite round. They qualified as the Serbian champions and started the competition in the main round. Ekonomac set a large list of records in its eight appearances in the UEFA Futsal Cup, being the only Serbian futsal club who participated eight times. The club also reached the elite round every time it participated in UEFA competitions.
