History

The club PSD (Paraćinsko Sportsko Društvo, English: Sports Society of Paraćin) was founded 1925. In 1930 PSD and Karađorđe were merged forming a new club, FK Jedinstvo. The chosen club colours were green and white. Until the beginning of the Second World War Jedinstvo played in the league of the Kragujevac Football Subassociation, having won it in its first edition in 1933.

After World War II, the club has changed its name several times, returning in 1950 to its former name Jedinstvo. During the 1970s the club has been playing in the Serbian League (3rd tier within Yugoslavia). Some of the memorable performances were done in the Yugoslav Cup when in 1984 it reaches the 1/8 finals and loses against HNK Hajduk Split, but the best result was achieved when in 1997 was only stopped by FK Vojvodina in the semi-finals. In the league the best result was archived when in 1995 the club played in the Second League of FR Yugoslavia A. In that season, the club name was Jedinstvo Cement. The team that played in the 1995 season was composed of Sudimac, Jović, Vasić, Lazić, Marković, Milošević, Filipović, Nesković, Pantelić, Ristić, Todorović, Manojlović, Stojiljković, Petrović, Miličević, Pejić, Bošković, Đorđević, Stojanović, Kostić, Smiljković, Pavlović, Sretenović and Obradović.
