History

Mureşul Târgu Mureş (named after the Mureș River, located in Târgu Mureș) was created in 1921 under the name SS Mureşul Târgu Mureş. In 1923, they joined to the CFR Târgu Mureş, Sports Club of railway workers, under the name CFR Mureşul Târgu Mureş. Same year, the club won the district championship Târgu Mureş and qualified for the final round of the Romanian championship. After victories against the Șoimii Sibiu and Venus București they reached the semifinals, but was defeated by Chinezul Timișoara with 0–9.

During 1924 it changed its name and became independent CS Mureşul Târgu Mureş. In 1932 they won the Championship of Center of Romania, newly created and re-qualified for the final rounds. They won against Crișana Oradea but in semifinals was defeated by reigning champions UD Reşiţa with 2–8.
