history

The FC Ploieşti was founded in 1922 as Tricolor CS Ploieşti ( German : Sportklub Drei Farben ). The club's colors corresponded to those of the Romanian national flag : blue, yellow and red. In the first few years the club failed to prevail against the strong competition from the Bucharest region and to qualify for the final round of the Romanian football championship.

When the Romanian professional league Divizia A was launched in 1932 , Tricolor was one of the founding members. In the first season , the club in the middle of his group was able to place, had one year later, but the league as a Table of abandoned and in the newly established Divizia B play. Here, too, the club finished last in the 1934/35 season, but was able to hold the class because there were no relegated athletes.

In 1936, Tricolor merged with local rivals CFPV Ploieşti ( Căile Ferate Ploieşti-Văleni ) under the new name Tricolor CFPV Ploieşti . In 1938 the winner of Divizia B managed to return to the House of Lords, but the club had to accept immediate relegation in 1939. At the beginning of the year, the club name was changed to FC Ploieşti and the club managed to return to the Divizia A. The 1940/41 season ended with a place in the lower midfield, which meant relegation. Since the game was interrupted due to the outbreak of the Second World War, the club could not use this qualification. In the transitional tournaments, midfield placements always jumped out before football was no longer possible from 1944.

After the end of the war, the club was classified in the Divizia B, contrary to the qualifications previously achieved, and rose in 1947 immediately. At the end of the 1947/48 season , the club rose again due to a reduction in the number of teams. He then played under the name CFR Ploieşti a season in Divizia B and finally broke up.
