Source-derived summary

OK Poštar (Serbian: Одбојкашки клуб Поштар) is a Serbian women's volleyball club based in Belgrade. The team currently competes in the Serbian First League, the second tier of women's volleyball in Serbia.

Founded in 1952, OK Poštar is one of the oldest women's volleyball clubs in Serbia and has a distinguished history, including four national championships and six national cups.

History

OK Poštar was established in 1952. Between 1958 and 1973, the club was among the leading volleyball teams in Yugoslavia. After this period, Poštar dropped to the lower tiers of competition.

The club returned to the First Federal League ("Prva A liga") in 1993, marking the beginning of a new competitive era. Poštar achieved its first major success in 1995 when, led by coach Goran Nešić, the team won the national cup.

In the 2003–04 and 2004–05 seasons, Poštar won back-to-back national cups. Under the leadership of head coach Darko Zakoč, Poštar entered its most successful period, winning *three consecutive domestic doubles* (league + cup titles), establishing itself as the dominant force in Serbian women's volleyball.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1952, 1958, 1973, 1993—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1952. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Poštar, Open-knowledge and entry providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “ŽOK Poštar”, the useful work is to connect “open-knowledge reference entry” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 15, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q958962. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1952, 1958, 1973 and 1993.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
