Initially the company did not have its own club, but it was represented by the earlier existing VASK (Vukovarski Amaterski Sportski Klub).
With the creation and official opening of a new football field in 1933, VASK was disestablished, and in its place was created in October 1933 a new club, SK Bata.
For that season, Bata brought to their ranks a new coach, the Hungarian Károly Nemes, and players such as Milan Antolković from Građanski Zagreb, Đorđe Lojančić and Nikola Perlić from SK Jugoslavija, Slavko Šurdonja from BSK Belgrade, among others.
[1] Nemes came in July 1938 coming from SK Jugoslavia which had hired Gyula Feldmann, to replace Bilek which had left Bata.
The club was re-established in 2005[4] as HNK Borovo and begins competing in the local lower leagues.
