History and league affiliation
Fleury FC was founded in 1970 under the name US Fleury-Mérogis; In 2015 he renamed himself FC Fleury 91, 91 being the ordinal number of the department. Since the merger with FCF Val d'Orge in the summer break of 2017, the name “Cœur d'Essonne” (“Heart of the Essonne”) has been added. The men in the club have never made it past the fourth division.
The league eleven of the women's football club FCF Val d'Orge, however, was promoted to Division 1 Féminine in 2017. This association was founded in 2003; his club colors were sky blue and white, his official seat was in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois . But he saw himself as a club of several communities from the valley of the Orge , around 25 km south of Paris; therefore, the league wives its home games in the Stade René-Fayel in Saint-Michel-sur-Orge , in the Stade Léo-Lagrange in Morsang-sur-Orge or in the Stade Auguste-Gentelet in Fleury-Mérogis. She was trained in the 2016/17 promotion season by Nicolas Carric and Lionel Cure, who also retained this role at first division club Fleury.
At first the club consisted of only two girls' teams (U-13 and U-16). With Sarah Palacin , a young striker belonged to the U-16s of the FCF Val d'Orge, who a decade later even played in the European Cup for Paris Saint-Germain . A year later, the US Fleury-Mérogis women joined the new club; in this respect, the 2017 merger also means an “organizational return” to Fleury for Val d'Orge. This team rose twice in a row and reached the Division d'Honneur in 2006 . In 2012, she was promoted to the second division (D2F) , which at the time was still held in three regional groups , in which the women achieved their best placement in 2016 as third. In the 2016/17 season, in which the D2F was reduced to two seasons of twelve, the league eleven led the table with an eight point lead five rounds to go; then followed three defeats in a row, before the team recovered and in the end, by a hair's breadth, defended first place, which allowed for promotion to the first division. Immediately afterwards there was a merger with FC Fleury in order to be able to insist on a broader foundation in the D1F.
In the state cup competition , the "blues" had already reached the second round twice ( 2013 and 2016 ). Parallel to the growing sporting success, the number of members grew to over 200 women of all age groups interested in football (2016); there is a particularly well-known competitor in the immediate vicinity with the Juvisy FCF . However, Val d'Orge also benefited from this proximity: in 2016/17, for example, with Gwenaëlle Butel , Lilas Traïkia , Julie Machart and Corinne Lebailly, the squad included four players who had previously worn Juvisy in the first division.
Since 2011, the FCF Val d'Orge has been awarded annually by the FFF regional association for its youth work, and in 2016 even with the golden label.
