Its first match was played to a team from the neighboring town of Castellbisbal.[3] however, it was not until 1917 the employer Barcelona Joan Franch i Vilarnau, who was vacationing with his family in Ruby during the summer, proposed organic form the club in undertaking the formal creation of the club under the name Ruby Football Club, which will remain in effect until its demise in 1927. The club was refounded in 1932 with its current name: Unio Esportiva Ruby.

Controversy over the date of foundation and fake background
In the past 30 years, the club has proposed several founding dates, many of them have been wrong, even claiming that the club was founded in 1902 and therefore was the centenary 2002. This theory was disproved by historian Josep Maria Freixes rubinense that through his historical research has shown that football rubinense origin and genesis of the club is dated 1912, which was recognized by the Consell Català for Sport (Catalan Sports Council) in 2005 [4] as for the Catalan Football Federation in 2006. The club, however, kept between 2003 and 2011 to 1902 as its founding until the end of June 2011, when the institution was finally recognized in 1912 as its foundation and at the same time, confirming the year 2012 as his centennial celebration.
