Sandecja Nowy Sacz is a Polish football club formed in 1910. Up to 1997 Sandecja stadium was named XXV years of PRL at the initiative of the then Communist leaders of the city. In 1998, nine years after the fall of communism in Poland, it was then renamed in honor of Father Wladyslaw Augustynek, a popular local Catholic priest, who was a passionate fan of the club. In the 2016/2017 season, Sandecja managed to win I liga, which promoted the club to the Polish Ekstraklasa, Poland's highest professional football league, for the first time in the club's history.
