Javor (Novi Pazar) is a Serbian professional football club based in Ivanjica, but historically and contextually linked to the Javor region and, by extension, Novi Pazar due to historical and demographic ties. While geographically located in Ivanjica, its player base, supporters, and historical connections draw significantly from the broader Sandžak region, including Novi Pazar.
The club competes in the Serbian SuperLiga, the top tier of Serbian football. Javor’s history involves periods of success and relegation, characteristic of many clubs in the Serbian league system. The club's name, "Javor," refers to the maple tree, a common symbol in the region.
While Ivanjica is the club's home, Javor's cultural and demographic connection to the larger Sandžak area, including Novi Pazar, distinguishes it. This connection is important to understand the club's identity and support base.
