History
The team was founded in 2005 and bore the name Stejarul Buzău for most of its history. It was financed by the local authorities on a per-project basis until 2017, when the municipality created a sports club called Sport Club Municipal Gloria and took over several other sports teams in the city, including Stejarul.
