The idea, nevertheless, could have not been realized immediately. No sooner than 1953, on 50-anniversary of Soko and BASK, on the Annual assembly, in the presence of many members of the pre-war club, FK Senjak took over the name BASK and all the traditions of this oldest football collective in former Kingdom of Serbia. Milovan Jakšić, "El Grande Milovan" was elected by the assembly as the president of the club. Since then, until 2005, the FK BASK has been competing mostly in the Serbian League Belgrade.
