History
The club was founded in 1920. In 1969, Angoulême was promoted to the French Division 1. In their first season in the elite, the club finished in a surprising fourth place in the 1969–70 season. Due to their high placement, Angoulême were invited to compete in the 1970–71 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Their opponent in the tournament was Portuguese side Vitória S.C. Angoulême lost the first game 3-0 away, and won 3-1 at home, suffering elimination. Next season, the club finished in 16th place, avoiding relegation by a single point. In the 1971–72 season, Angoulême finished in last place, suffering relegation to Division 2. Angoulême never returned to the top tier of French football, and currently competes in the fourth level of French football.
