TMRF Widzew Łódź was a Polish football club. Originally founded in 1910 in the village of Widzew (now part of Łódź), it was dissolved with the outbreak of World War II.[1]

In 2014, it was re-founded by Widzew Łódź fanatics.[2] They won the Łódź I group of Klasa B (8th and bottom tier of the Polish football pyramid) in their first season and subsequently got promoted to Klasa A (7th tier).[3] The club was created because fans of the original Widzew have been in a long conflict with the club board.
Only Widzew supporters were playing for this team,[4] similar to the policy of KKS Wiara Lecha.

Before the start of the 2016−17 season, TMRF Widzew Łódź became Widzew Łódź's reserve team.[5]
