History
In 1999 after the Kosovo war, many of the Kosovo Albanian players left the Serbian club FK Trepča and decided to found their own club. The club colours are black and green. The Albanian club received the name KF Trepça, the Albanian name for FK Trepča, thus there were two clubs in the city with virtually the same name. However, the Football Federation of Kosovo was not recognized by FIFA and UEFA until 2016.
The glorious generations from the 1970s Trepča that made Mitrovica an important point in the Yugoslav football map are part of the heritage of FK Trepča K. Mitrovica that in 1999 moved to the northern part of the town and plays nowadays in Serbian lower leagues. However KF Trepca claims that heritage for themselves.
Stadium
After the Kosovo war in 1999, the city was divided into a southern part with an almost exclusively Kosovo Albanian population and a northern part with a non-Albanian or predominantly Serb population. During the war, many Serbs and non-Albanians fled to the northern part of the city or were expelled. The 2004 unrest in Kosovo reinforced the ethnic division of the city.
The home ground of the club is now the Trepča Stadium, the same stadium where the Serbian club FK Trepča played until 1999. The stadium is located in the southern part of the city, but FK Trepča is based in North Kosovska Mitrovica, in North Kosovo; it is not currently possible for them to play their home matches in their former home stadium. Currently, only Albanian teams play in Trepča Stadium, including the KF Trepça. The Trepča Stadium is now called Olympik Stadiumi Adem Jashari by the Kosovo Albanian population, after Adem Jashari, a former leader of the Albanian paramilitary rebel organisation UÇK; the non-Albanian population still uses the name Stadion Trepča. The stadium is the largest in Kosovo with a capacity of 18,200.
