Mizil. Rapid Mizil would merge with ICIM Ploiești, taking over from it players and the place in the third division, the 1982-83 edition, where it was active. At the end of the next edition of the championship, 1983-84, Steua Mizil promoted to
Divizia B, after an extremely close match with
CS Brazi In the first edition, 1984-85, he participated under the name A.S. Mizil, which then changed and became the Steaua Mizil. This team had the same logo as the
FCSB club.
This club-satellite relationship meant that juniors from the teams of FCSB arrived at Mizil year after year for the experience they could get from the tough competition of the Divizia B. At the end of the 1996-97 championship edition, the team was relegated to the third league and disbanding.
