FCF Condé-sur-Noireau

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Football Club Féminin Condéen or FCF Condé-sur-Noireau is a French women's football club from Condé-sur-Noireau , a small municipality in the Norman department of Calvados .

history

The club was founded in 1978 from a community of just over 5,000 inhabitants in a region where women's football had already gained a foothold almost a decade earlier, not only in larger cities, but also in the countryside. The club colors of the FCFC are blue and white; the first team of the club play their home games nowadays at the Stade Robert Gossart . The association does intensive work with young talent and in the 2010s had teams of girls of all ages.

League affiliation and achievements

It only took about three years ( 1981/82 season ) for the FCF Condéen players to reach the preliminary round of the French championship for the first time. They then continued to do this almost every year until the early 1990s, without being able to draw attention to themselves nationwide through any particular success. However, they soon assumed the leading role in women's football in their region of origin, which they will continue to hold into the 21st century. In 1992 - when the FFF football association introduced a single-track top division - Condé's female footballers qualified as one of twelve teams from all over France to take part in their first season . In 1995 they were relegated from it, played in the second division and only returned in 2004 to the league, which has since been renamed Division 1 Féminine . In the fifth year after that, the women's football club had developed into a kind of "elevator team" between the highest and second highest league. Since the last relegation in the summer of 2009 , the FCF Condéen, whose best placement was two ninth places in the respective final table, has not managed to return to Division 1. (As of August 2015)

In the national cup competition for the Challenge de France , introduced in 2001 , Condé has also not yet won a national title. After all, the FCFC twice reached the round of the best eight women’s teams in France: In 2005/06 the Normans failed because of the cup winners of the HSC Montpellier and in 2008/09 also against a later finalist, the Le Mans UC .
