Renamed teams
While still remaining a separate club, in the summer of 2020, ACS Fortuna Becicherecu Mic signed a partnership with ASU Politehnica Timișoara, as a result of which the male Fortuna team became an unofficial satellite of Politehnica's.[1] Therefore, in the summer of 2021, strengthening the partnership between the two clubs, the Fortuna women's team announced that it would use the Politehnica Timișoara branding[2][3] starting with the 2021–2022 season.
Following a partnership with the Alexandria municipality, Universitatea Alexandria was renamed as CSM Alexandria. This was achieved by a cession of rights to participate in all competitions from Clubul Sportiv Universitatea Alexandria to Clubul Sportiv Municipal Alexandria.[4]
Due to waning support from authorities of Reșița and Caraș-Severin County, ACS Banat Girls Reșița started a partnership with Comloșu Mare municipality from Timiș County, where they would play all their home matches.[5] As a consequence, the Reșița part of the name was dropped, the team changing its name to just "ACS Banat Girls", thus still continuing to represent the historic Banat region.
