Foundation

The club was founded in 1905 as Olbia Calcio. In 2001–02, they were the champions of Serie D and earned promotion to Serie C2.

After the 2009-10 Lega Pro Seconda Divisione the club was dissolved for financial problems. However, FIGC formally canceled the membership of Olbia Calcio S.r.l. in 2016,[1] after the promotion of the new Olbia.

Refoundation

In the Summer of 2010 the club was refounded as U.S. Olbia 1905 A.S.D.[2] and restarted from the sixth-tier Eccellenza Sardinia. They won this league in 2012–13 and were promoted to Serie D. The club was also known as just A.S.D. Olbia 1905.[3][4] The club later incorporated as a limited company: Olbia Calcio 1905 S.S.D. S.r.l. circa 2015–16 season.

In 2016 the club promoted to Lega Pro to fill the vacancies as Olbia Calcio 1905 S.r.l..[5]
