U Mobitelco Cluj is a Romanian professional basketball club based in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. It plays in the Romanian Basketball Division A, Romanian Basketball Cup and FIBA EuroCup Challenge. They finished third in the last Romanian Championship (2006/2007) and were Romanian Cup finalists in 2006.
As other sports teams that were initially part of the parent sports club, U Cluj, for historical reasons, the club still keeps the name U (short form of Universitatea) in its name.
History
While the parent sports club, U Cluj, was founded in 1919, the basketball team was founded in 1947, but played for the first time in the Romanian Championship only in 1966. Since then, U Cluj was a constant presence in the Romanian First Division, with their best performances being recorded in the 1990s, when they won three Romanian Championships.
During its history, the team had different names. Since 1990, the main sponsor's name is usually added to the name of the parent sports club, U Cluj. This resulted in a change of name every time the main sponsor was changed.
Previous names of the team were: U, Ştiinţa, Ştiinţa IMF, U Metalul Rosu, U Fimaro, U SM Invest, U Sanex, and U Carbochim.
Arena
U Mobitelco Cluj plays its home games in the main Sports hall from Cluj-Napoca, Sala Sporturilor "Horia Demian", that can accommodate up to 4,000 spectators.
