Hetman Białystok, formerly Gwardia Bialystok, is a Polish sports club based in Podlaskie Voivodeship. The football departments currently plays in the second group of Klasa A Podlaskie.

History

Gwardia was organized in 1948 as a Polish Citizens' Militia's (Communist Police) club. The name Gwardia used to be a common name for any Citizens' Militia's sports' club in Poland. Many players were soldiers serving in the Polish Army who were assigned to the units in or near Bialystok City.

Gwardia was the first team from Białystok after World War II to advance to the second tier, but survived there only one season (1951–52) before being relegated to the third division.

With the fall of the Communist Oligarchy and the cessation of sponsorship, the club was forced to temporarily disappear in 1990.

The club was reactivated soon after when it changed its name from Gwardia to Hetman. The club also added three other sections: amateur boxing, judo, and contract bridge.
