History

Blagnac Football Club was founded relatively late in 1962 after a Frenchman by the name of Louis Heraud discovered that the town of Blagnac had no football club. Heraud, along with his supporters, proceeded to go door-to-door collecting up to 20 euros from local Blagnac townspeople in order to begin the process of creating the club. However, it wasn't until a man commonly called Mr. Beranger, a manager of a restaurant in the local airport agreed to fund the club. The club was officially formed on 4 March 1962 as Football Club Blagnacais. Beranger was given the role of president, while Heraud was given dual-roles as vice president and secretary general. The club's first manager was Andre Auge. In the club's early years of existence, they primarily played with players from the local and regional level of French football, as well as players well past their prime that came from Toulouse FC.
