The original Belgrade Rugby Club (BRK) was founded on December 20, 1982.

The team colours were blue and white and the logo featured a sparrow (Dživdžan).

[1][4] The team's colours became yellow, brown, and white and the sparrow was replaced by a crown.

The word Royal was removed from the club's name, the colours were reverted to blue and white and a re-styled sparrow replaced the crown.

A group of former BRK-KBRK members and players were unhappy with these changes and, led by Danijem Stricevicem, decided to split away.
