History

Amateur leagues
Speranța Jucu was founded in 1974, under the name of Unirea Jucu, and played for 39 years at amateur level, Liga IV and Liga V. In 2013 the team won Liga IV-Cluj County and went to the promotion play-off when they beat Satu Mare County champion, Someșul Cărășeu 1-0.[2]
Liga III
In their three Liga III seasons they finished on 8th, 7th and 4th place. In the summer of 2016 the club almost withdrew from Liga III after Jucu Municipality withdrew some funding, but a new investor bought the club and set an ambitious target, promotion to Liga II.[3] In the summer of 2017, the club was dissolved due to financial problems, but re-founded in the same period as Speranța Jucu and enrolled in the fifth tier.[4]
