History

The club was originally founded in 1966.[1]

The club was originally set to join the Première Ligue de soccer du Québec for the 2012 season as one of the founding members,[2] although that did not occur.[3]

They eventually joined the PLSQ for the 2015 season.[4] They had a successful inaugural season, finishing in second place in the league, one point behind champions CS Mont-Royal Outremont,[5] while also winning the League Cup, defeating Mont-Royal 4–2 in extra time.[6][7]

They did not return to the league for the 2017 season due to administrative constraints.[8][9]
