history

The club was founded on July 1, 1948 through a merger of FC Yverdon (founded in 1897), FC Concordia and the club White Star and plays in the Stade Municipal.

The football club from French-speaking Switzerland rose in 2005 for the third time in the highest Swiss league, the Super League . The Vaudois won the championship in the Challenge League and were thus qualified for promotion to the highest Swiss league. That was the 3rd ascent after 1993 and 1999 .

Due to the higher television money there and better earning opportunities in marketing, the club planned for the 2005/06 season with a budget of 3.4 to 4 million francs. The team rose again after only one season in 2006.

In the 2016/2017 it was possible to advance to the Promotion League as 1st league champion.
