Stade de Reims Féminines (French pronunciation: [stad də ʁɛ̃s feminin]) or Stade de Reims Women is a French women's football club from Reims established in 1968 as FCF Reims (Football Club Féminin de Reims).[4] In 1970 it became Stade de Reims's women's team, and four years later it was one of the twelve founding teams of the Division 1 Féminine. They were the first French team to sign a player from Ireland in the contemporary era of women's football.[5]

History

Pierre Geoffroy helped found the club Stade de Reims Féminines.[6]

Stade de Reims was one of the championship's leading teams during its first years, winning five titles between 1975 and 1982.[7][8][9]

In 1973 Stade de Reims did a tour of Ireland and played a number of matches around the country. They played local teams and had one match against an Irish Selection. They signed Anne O'Brien afterwards making them the first non-Irish team to sign an Irish player, and they wanted to sign other players as well.

Some players did not sign because they were under 18 and their parents did not want them to move, and others were never told of the opportunity.[5]

The team subsequently declined throughout the 1980s, but is currently playing in Division 1 Féminine (D1F).
