===FBK Kaunas 1993–2012 success & fall===
 
===FBK Kaunas (1993–1999 and 2000–2012)===
The club waschanged restructuredits name in 1993, a baseball section added and the name changed to Kauno futbolo beisbolo klubas. The club had in its first years not such a great success and FBK Kaunas had to wait until 1999 before they could lift a trophy again. Club was shortly renamed to Žalgiris Kaunas after the 9th round of [[1999 A Lyga]], but only carried the name for the remaining of the season. From 1999 to 2008, Kaunas won 8 championships, 4 Lithuanian cups, 43 super cups and 1 Baltic league title, but in the autumn of 2008 Kaunas dominance was once and for all broken when [[FK Ekranas]] won the championship in front of FBK Kaunas. After finishing second in 2008 A Lyga championship the club's president announced that the club were being demoted from the A Lyga in favour of LFF I Lyga, the 2nd tier of Lithuanian football system, but as conflict with LFF intensified, FBK Kaunas was relegated to LFF II lyga (consisting of amateur teams).<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20090328093413/http://www.futbolas.lt/lt/naujienos/,nid.2641 Lithuanian</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://soccerlens.com/chaos-in-kaunas-the-decline-and-fall-of-the-romanov-empire/27087/|title=Chaos in Kaunas: The Decline and Fall of the Romanov Empire - Sportslens|author=|date=20 April 2009|work=soccerlens.com|accessdateaccess-date=8 February 2017|archive-date=26 October 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161026172300/http://soccerlens.com/chaos-in-kaunas-the-decline-and-fall-of-the-romanov-empire/27087/|url-status=live}}</ref>
 
FBK Kaunas won II lyga championship in their first year in that division. Despite relegation FBK Kaunas also participated in the new UEFA Europe League as a vice-champ of Lithuania but did not advance past FK Sevojno. Despite drawing both games FBK Kaunas lost on away goals.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/season=2010/matches/round=2000034/match=2000583/index.html|title=UEFA Europa League 2009/10 - History - Kaunas-Sloboda Užice – UEFA.com|first=|last=uefa.com|date=|work=uefa.com|accessdateaccess-date=8 February 2017|archive-date=20 December 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161220064124/http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/season=2010/matches/round=2000034/match=2000583/index.html|url-status=live}}</ref> FBK Kaunas won I Lyga in 2010 and was promoted to the 2011 A Lyga season. The 2011 season was a huge disappointment for Kaunas as they didn't manage to live up to the high expectations and eventually ended at a 10th place.
