History
In the 2013–2014 season, the club competed in the Championnat National, the third highest level of French football. On 18 April 2014 the club clinched promotion to Ligue 2 for the 2014–15 season, in the hopes of becoming the smallest club to ever compete at the second level of French football.[1] However, the club was ruled to have an inadequate stadium, and so they were not allowed to compete in Ligue 2. They ended up being forced to release their first team players and to use their reserve team squad to play in the seventh tier for 2014-15.[2] However, in 2017, they were promoted to the 2017-18 Championnat National 3, only to be relegated after finishing bottom of their group.
Current squad
As of 28 December 2019. Note: The following players in this squad are either free agents or signed by other teams.[3]
Note: Flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules; some limited exceptions apply. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
