Košarkarsko društvo Slovan, commonly referred to as KD Slovan or Slovan, is a basketball team from Ljubljana, Slovenia.
History
The founding of the club was the idea of Stane Urek, who in 1951 proposed the establishment of a basketball club in Poljane at one of the Ljubljana high schools. The club was named KK Poljane and got its official permission to play on 13 April in the same year. After just two days, they organised their first tournament, at which they invited Rudar Trbovlje and Krka, both playing in the first national league.
The team was also named KK Krim, KK Slavija, KK Odred, and finally KD Slovan – the name they have had until today. After more than 20 years of playing on the basketball court of Poljane Grammar School, they moved to Kodeljevo Hall in the 1974–75 season, where they have been playing ever since.
