History

Amiens Athlétic Club was set up in 1901 by a group of players from the Association du Lycée d'Amiens, French schoolboy champions in 1902, 1903 and 1904. AAC crushed their very first opponents, Saint-Quentin, 13-0 a few months after its creation. In April 1902 the Comité de Picardie de l'U.S.F.S.A was established by the then president of the AAC (Henri-Frédéric Petit). AAC dominated the early USFSA league for the first 12 seasons. In 1909 the club got a new ground, at the Henry Daussy park, allowing an attendance of more than 1000. In 1933 the club got it's first professional section, later abandoned in 1952, before becoming professional again in 1993. Since the early days, AAC has undergone two name changes: In 1961 to Sporting Club d'Amiens, and in 1989 as Amiens Sporting Club.
