Universitatea Cluj is a sports club in Cluj, Romania. The club was founded in September 1919 by the "Sports Society of University Students" (Romanian: Societatea Sportivă a Studenților Universitari—abbreviated to "U"). Its first chairman was Professor Iuliu Hațieganu, a physician and politician. Its hockey section was established in 1926. Among the club's first players were Hirsch, Buga, Lazar Sfera, and Nemes, who had previously played football. The 1925-26 Romanian Championship was scheduled to take place in Cluj on January 23-24, but the competition did not materialize.
