After few seasons, financial problems forced the club to withdraw from the competition. Bogdan Serwiński and Grzegorz Jeżowski then submitted a youth team and to the lower Polish divisions under the name of Międzyszkolny Klub Sportowy (MKS) Kurier Muszyna. By achieving promotions the team begun to climb the national leagues, in 2000 it was renamed Muszynianka and in 2003 it gained promotion to the highest league (called Liga Serie A).[1]
