Source-derived summary

FK Beograd (Serbian Cyrillic: ФК Београд), formerly known as White City Woodville, is an Australian semi-professional soccer club based in Woodville, Adelaide, South Australia. Founded in 1949 by the Serbian Australian community, the club currently competes in the South Australian National Premier League. They are currently coached by Daniel Mullen and his assistant John Falidis.

History

The Beograd Sports and Social club was formed on 19 November 1949 and a meeting arranged at the railway lawns, North Terrace, Adelaide. The first Committee was: President Ilija Ilić, Vice President Miodrag Zivković, Secretary Danilo Ćukić, Treasurer  Nikola Kleut and committee members Dušan Naumović, Vaso Keković, Stanoje Vuković and Peter Nikolich.

Beograd played its first league game on 15 April 1950 at its home ground in the South Parklands against Prospect, winning the game 5–2. Beograd moved to its current home of Frank Mitchell Park in 1956. In 2006, the club celebrated its 50th anniversary.

In 1979 Beograd won the State League First Division Championship for the first time. This milestone also coincides with the year Beograd changed its playing colours from blue, white and red to the Serbian colours of Red, blue and white.

Editorial summary

The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1949, 1950, 1956, 2006—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1949. The account is most persuasive where Beograd, Australia and football can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as football club. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 11, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7994561. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1949, 1950, 1956 and 2006.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
