With CCA he was able to celebrate the club's first successes in the 1950s, when he won the Romanian championship five times and the Romanian cup four times . Apart from the first few years, it was not used regularly and only on half of the possible games. Zavoda remained loyal to CCA for ten years before moving to Divizia B for local rivals Academia Militară Bucharest in 1960 and ending his career there in 1961.
