History
1992–1994
At the beginning of 1992, the work of HŠK Zrinjski Mostar was restored in Međugorje, and with its renewal, the winding in the town of Neretva slowly arouses and is organized. As early as 1993, the idea of launching a fan group was created in the fans' minds, which would have the goal of organizing cheering at the matches of Zrinjski. In the course of that year, an idea arose, that those fiercest fans of Zrinjski are called Ultras, modeled on fan groups across Europe.
1994
In April 1994, the Initiative Committee of the Fan Club Zrinjski, Ultras, was created, which was aimed at organizing a Fan Assembly within two years. However, because of the war circumstances, what could have been done within two years wasn't done. They played for the matches, and Zrinjski played very friendly games in Imotski and Široki Brijeg. In 1994, in Mostar, the final match for the champion of the then Croatian Republic of Herzeg-Bosnia in Zrinjski was played at the stadium Zrinjski against the team Mladost Dubint from Široki Brijeg. In quite an interesting game, fans failed to see a single goal, and the result remained 0:0. At that match, about 5,000 spectators were gathered, and there were around 300 - 400 of the most fervent ones, which were placed on the central western table of the HŠK Zrinjski stadium. In this game, for the first time, a transparency with the Ultras label was placed. This match has remained memorable after the first organized gathering of Ultras at the matches of its beloved club. This game has written a new history of organized cheering in the city of Neretva. A year later, the Ultras are gathering in basketball matches in Zrinjski, and there are frequent departures on the visiting courts also.
1997 and 1998
In 1997, in the Croatian Lodge "Herceg Stjepan Kosača", the first Assembly of the Fan Club was held in Mostar, where more than 400 members of this support group gathered. After that meeting, one of the ultras podium groups was a fan club named Zrinjevci, which was common in all games played by Zrinjski. During this period there are numerous guest appearances throughout Herzegovina, and go toBusovača, Kiseljak, Vitez, Prozor-Rama, Orašje and other cities where the First League of Herzeg-Bosnia was played. One year later, Zrinjski is trying to compete for the Euro Cups for the first time in the playoffs for the champions of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The nuns were in the group together with the Željezničar and Bosnia from Visoko, and all the matches were played at the Koševo Olympic Stadium in Sarajevo. It can be rightly said that Ultras were the ones who first crossed the then war line with the fanciful features and came to Sarajevo. Approximately 10,000 spectators gathered in the Koševo Stadium, about 50 Ultras, which were more than excellent, but neither their cheering helped Zrinjska to score a victory. Zrinjski was defeated with 2:1, and at that time Zrinjski was played by Blaž Slišković, one of the best players from the former Yugoslavia.
