  Abstract:  At Cluj soccer appeared in 1896, when the sport teacher Lajos Vermes was constituted to be fencing-master at the University of Cluj. He introduced ball games as well and they played frequently with the students of the sport club. To play soccer they needed a large field, so in the begining they were playing outside the town in the place where we can find now the Gheorgheni neighborhood, in the Hoia forest, in the Stark garden form the Turzii street or at “Kismező” (now in Gruia neighborhood), the playground of the Unitarian High school. These weren’t proper fields, they needed to respect the limits of the small areas they had. They‘ve started to use the first field, which was proper in measure as well, and had normal gates, from 1905 and in 1911 they built the sport center from the Central Park where the city made the field according to the European standards.
