History
On 11 July 1946 a sports club was established by the local coal mine by the name KS Nowa Ruda and its history has been intertwined with that of the local mine. That same year the name changed to Klub Sportowy Węglowiec. In 1949 another name change meant that the club was called KS Górnik. In 1955 a merger of the club with another local team Włókniarz Nowa Ruda caused the new club to become ZKS Piast Nowa Ruda, a name which became legally recognised in 1957. Under the decision of the Minister of Mining and Energy in 1972 another merger took place when the local mine in Nowa Ruda was merged with another mine in Słupiec to become one, which meant that its two football teams also merged, therefore ZKS Górnik Słupiec merged with Piast to become GKS Piast Nowa Ruda before finally reverting it original prefix KS in 1992, a name which remains to this day. The clubs biggest footballing achievements came in the mid-80's and early 90's where the team has enjoyed spells in the higher leagues, including a season in the second highest division and several in the third tier.
