history

Prahova Ploieşti was founded in 1909 as FC United Ploieşti by American and Dutch workers from the oil refineries in Ploieşti. It was not until 1911 that the first Romanian players joined the club. In the 1911/12 season United won the Cupa Alexandru Bellio , which was later rated as the Romanian football championship. It is noteworthy that United were only able to play with nine players for the game against Olympia Bucharest , as their parents had forbidden the others to travel to Bucharest.

At the beginning of 1914, the foreigners left the country or joined the newly founded association Societatea Româno-Americană Bucureşti . United then renamed itself in Prahova Ploieşti . In the 1915/16 season Prahova won the Cupa Jean Luca P. Niculescu , which was later also rated as the Romanian football championship, but benefited from the war preparations in Romania, whereupon the Bucharest clubs could not compete in Ploiesti.

After the First World War , Prahova only played a subordinate role and had to be content with games in Divizia B and Divizia C. Only in the season 1946/47 , the club played in the Divizia A . In 1947 Prahova merged with Concordia Ploieşti and changed its name frequently in the following years. Via Partizanul (1950), Flacăra (1951) and Flacăra May 1 (1955) it came to Energia May 1 (1956). In the 1962/63 season Energia was transferred to the lower divisions due to illegal methods. After renaming to Prahova CSU (1984), it was named Argus Prahova in 1999 and was dissolved in 2000.
