Torcida Split is a HNK Hajduk Split supporters’ group in Croatia with the branches in other countries, mostly, (but not exclusively) among Croat communities. Founded on 28 October 1950, Torcida is the oldest supporters group in Europe. They are one of the major football fan groups in Croatia and the one of the largest in Southeast Europe.
The Torcida was founded in 1950 by a group of sailors from Korcula who had witnessed the passion of the crowd at the World Cup Final in Brazil.
The name “Torcida” returned to public use in 1980, when the new generation of fans of Hajduk wanted, by old name and tradition, to celebrate and support the club. Since then, the fans began to assemble in the north stand of the new stadium in Poljud.
They are in good terms with the biggest ultra group of Portuguese club Benfica, No Name Boys (NN). It started during the Croatian war, when NN showed a message “Freedom for Croatia”, and some time later, Benfica played in Croatia against Hajduk and in a car accident in Mérida, Spain, 3 members of NN lost their lives (including the leader of NN, Gullit)
