Club Sportiv Comunal Crișul Sântandrei, commonly known as Crișul Sântandrei, or simply as Sântandrei, is a Romanian football club based in Sântandrei, Bihor County, currently playing in the Liga III.

Crișul Sântandrei was founded on in 2009 to continue the tradition of the old local football club, Recolta Sântandrei. Crișul played for most of its existence at the amateur level, in the Liga IV, after its promotion from Liga V, in 2011. The team was known at local level for its notable results, but also for its bad luck, "the white and blues" finishing five times in the 2nd place.

Its location, in the Oradea metropolitan area, ensured in the last decade a fast grow for the commune of Sântandrei, demographic and financial. Finally, Crișul won Liga IV Bihor at the end of the 2022–23 season, breaking the 2nd place curse. This county title was the first for Crișul, but also for the commune of Sântandrei, even its predecessor, Recolta, did not achieve this performance.
