About CS Sedan Ardennes

CS Sedan Ardennes is a French football club based in the city of Sedan in the Ardennes region, founded in 1919. The club is known by the nickname “Les Sangliers” (The Boars) and plays its home matches at the Stade Louis-Dugauguez. It is traditionally recognized as one of the historic clubs of northern France, with strong regional identity and long-standing local support.

The club experienced its golden era in the 1950s and 1960s, when it became a major force in French football. During this period, Sedan won the Coupe de France twice, in 1956 and 1961, and regularly competed in the top division. These achievements established it among the stronger French clubs of that time and earned it participation in European competitions.

In later decades, CS Sedan alternated between divisions and gradually lost its top-level stability. Financial problems and administrative relegations in the 21st century led to a significant decline, including drops into the lower regional leagues. Despite this, the club has continued to rebuild and remains known for its resilience, strong fan base, and historical importance in French football.
