| TRIVIA |
The current club was founded in 1995 with the merger of the rugby sections of Stade Francais and Club Athlétique des Sports Généraux (CASG). Entrepreneur Max Guazzini took over in 1992, when in third division, beginning the club’s recent rise. In 2001 he started the ‘Dieux du Stade’ – (the Gods of Stade) – calendar. |
