On February 11th 1916 "Sporting Club Universitar Studentesc" was born, as an initiative of a group of professors and students having only football, athletics and tennis departments at the beginning.

Year 1916 ( MCMXVI) was a Leap year starting on Saturday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Leap year The president of the club was professor Traian Lalescu, the world famous mathematician.
"Sporting" had no stadium of its own and the team used to play here and there. Even after acceding in the first national league, the stadium was still in its project phase. It was only when the club "Stiinta" was established in 1954 and inherited the tradition of the student's sport that they were allowed to use the "Belvedere" stadium in Regie. Year 1954 ( MCMLIV) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1954 Gregorian calendar)
The history of the club can be divided into several distinct periods. The first period lasted until the WWII and culminated with the accession in the first national league, then the club disappeared in the dawn of communism and was reborn and grown again to accede the first division; "the Hagi period" with its best performance, second place in 1986- a period lead by president Barbu Emil "Mac" Popescu; and finally the present marked by the president Vasile Siman, with Sportul Studentesc again among the best football teams in the championship. Year 1986 ( MCMLXXXVI) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link displays 1986 Gregorian calendar)
The ‘80s were the best years in the team's history, due to achieving extraordinary performances (third place in 1892-’83 and second place in 1985-’86 championships) but mostly because back then stars like Marcel Coraş and Gheorghe Hagi played for Sportul. Marcel Coraş (born May 14, 1959) is a retired Romanian football Striker. Gheorghe Hagi (ˈge̯orge ˈhaʤi in Romanian born February 5, 1965 in Săcele) is a Romanian former football player Hagi played for Sportul until 1986, when Steaua Bucuresti "borrowed" him before the final of the Champions Cup. Year 1986 ( MCMLXXXVI) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link displays 1986 Gregorian calendar) FC Steaua Bucureşti is a Romanian professional football club from Ghenceasouth-west Bucharest. In the 1998-1999 season Sportul Studentesc came close to a demotion to the third league but the massive rejuvenation of the team, decided by the young investor Vasile Şiman, eventually proved itself to be successful and the team remained in the second league, even though the majority of the players were born in 1981 or were at the end of their careers. The 2000-2001 seasons brings for Sportul Studentesc its third accession in the first league, after coming out on the first place in the previous season in a fantastic struggle with Farul Constanta, with 81 points and a remarkable GD of 71-17. In the 2000-2001 season "the students" finished 13th but in the next season they demoted again to the second division.
Sportul finished first in the second league in the 2003-2004 season and once again advanced to the first league, despite having sold half of their squad from the previous season. They had a praiseworthy evolution in the 2004-2005 seasons, ending the championship on sixth place with Gigel Bucur the league's top scorer (21 goals). Gheorghe "Gigel" Bucur (born April 8, 1980 in Bucharest) is a Romanian football player currently playing at FC In the 2005-2006 season the team, coached by former international player Dan Petrescu, and by Gheorghe Multescu in the second half, had a pretty good evolution ending the first half of the season on the ninth place and the second half on fourth place. Daniel Vasile Petrescu (born 22 December, 1967 in Bucharest, Romania) is a former international football player whose teams included Gheorghe Mulţescu (born 13 November, 1951 in Botoroaga, Romania) is a former football player During the following offseason, the team was relegated due to financial reasons.
