The team competed in the second division and achieved a best place finish of third in 1963.[4] However, in 1969, due to financial problems, the club's activities were suspended. ### KKŻ Krosno After nearly 20 years without speedway the city welcomed **KKŻ Krosno** for the [1988 Polish speedway season](/source/1988_Polish_speedway_season). The team spent nine uninspiring years in the second division.[5] ### ŻKS Krosno For the [1997 Polish speedway season](/source/1997_Polish_speedway_season) the team were known as **ŻKS Krosno** (Żużlowy Klub Sportowy w Krośnie).[6] When the [Ekstraliga](/source/Ekstraliga_(speedway)) was introduced in [2000](/source/2000_Polish_speedway_season), the club were in the [2.

The team was called **KSŻ Krosno** (Krośnieńskie Stowarzyszenie Żużlowe) but the result was the same as the team struggled in the lower tiers of Polish speedway. ### KSM Krosno KSM Krosno in 2009 **KSM Krosno** (Krośnieńskie Stowarzyszenie Motorowe Krosno) was the next name change for the [2007 Polish speedway season](/source/2007_Polish_speedway_season).[8] KSM languished near the bottom of 2. Liga for multiple seasons before a regular season 2nd place finish in [2013](/source/2013_Polish_speedway_season).[9] The name disappeared at the end of the 2018 season, as the team finished last in 2.Liga. ### Wilki Krosno In 2018, during a press conference, the authorities of Krosno presented a new club that replaced KSM Krosno.
