Comment
László Diószegi and Dávid Kertész decided to start a new football club in the summer of 2011. They picked the red and white colors to honor the football traditions of Sfântu Gheorghe(Sepsiszentgyörgy) and chose the name OSK as an acronym reminiscent of the defunct Olt Sport Klub. They wanted the name of the city to be also included in the club's name, so they chose the prefix Sepsi form Sepsiszentgyörgy, which is the Hungarian name of the city. The nicknames of the club are Piros-fehérek / Roș-albii (The Red and Whites) and Székelyek / Secuii (The Székelys). After playing during its first years at the Municipal Stadium in Sfântu Gheorghe, the squad was moved to the Sepsi Arena Stadium in 2021.
