History

1901-1904

Stade Rennais was founded on March 10, 1901 by former students from Rennes.

In 1902 the club acquired the "Omnisport" status and became part of the Union of French Athletic Sports clubs (French: USFSA - Union des sociétés françaises de sports athlétiques). Year 1902 ( MCMII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link will display calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Common year starting Union des Sociétés Françaises de Sports Athlétiques. The USFSA is a former French sporting federation The following year, the Stade Rennais was a founding member of the Brittany football league. By the end of the season, the club had won the second "série", beating the FC Rennes 4-0 in the final.

Key players of the Stade Rennais in 1903 were Martin Peter, Langelier Montouan, Mr. Duchesne, Guilbert Ghis, Mr. Marcel, Mr. Leroy, Mr. Audren and Mr. Jamin. Duchesne, Jamin, Peter and Ghis were amongst the founding members of the club in 1901.

The merger left the Stade Rennais UC with one main opponent in Brittany : the Union Sportive Servanaise. Close misses in 1905, 1906 and 1907 against the US Servanaise lead President Sexer of the SRUC to hire Welsh footballer Griffith as player-manager-captain.

During the First World War, Rennes were allowed to participate in the Allied Cup (Inter-federation French Championship) as well as the Rennes Cup, since the Brittany league was interrupted by the war. After winning easily the Rennes Cup, Griffith lead his players to a number of surprise wins against better known clubs and were finalists thanks to a 3-0 win against Le Havre and a 5-0 win over the Entente Suisse.

The following year, Rennes had a successful run in the Interfederation cup but were unable to retain their title. Having become a strong national side, since Rennes won the Upper Brittany League in 1918, as well as the Allies Cup in 1916 and 1917, the post-war period was one of great success for the Stade Rennais UC : Western Champions in 1919, 1920, 1921 and 1923, the Stade Rennais was also finalist of the French Cup in 1922, losing 2-0 against Red Star. Red Star Football Club 93 is a French football club founded by Jules Rimet in Saint-Ouen Seine-Saint-Denis, Paris in 1897 The squad in the 1922 final was notable for the presence for François Hughes, the first French international to play for Rennes, and considered to be one of the best French centre-forwards of his time.

1924-1931

In 1924, the Stade Rennais Université Club merged with the Rennes Etudiant-Club, keeping the name of Stade Rennais Université Club. The season was disappointing however, with Rennes finishing outside the top 2 places of the league they were playing in for the first time since 1907, being 3rd in the Western Division.

The President of the Stade Rennais, Isidore Odorico, brought several foreign players to the club (Lothka, Szabo, Nico. . . ), but the side remained unable to win the Western Division, and President Odorico's attitude towards both amateurism and restrictions on foreign players conflicted with the Western Division's direction. As other teams rose in the Western Division (Stade Quimpérois and CSJB Angers), Rennes decided to retire from the Western Division in 1929. Stade Quimpérois is a French football team from the city of Quimper, Finistère, currently playing in CFA 2 group G (5th

For three years, the Stade Rennais Université Club was no longer part of the Western Division, and played only friendly games. They managed to attract good international sparring-partners, however, such as Sparta Prague, Slavia Prague, Austria Vienna, Budapest, and nation-wide known sides such as Red Star Saint-Ouen, Olympique de Marseille or FC Sochaux-Montbéliard.

Current Teams (2008-2009 Ligue 1 teams in European competitions The original European Cup of 1955-56 featured Real Madrid against Stade Whilst Odorico's policy was in favour of professionalism, the club was in a dire financial state after having missed 3 seasons of league football, and despite the support the club had in Rennes, the Stade Rennais' application to enter the professional football league was rejected on the basis that club finances were too fragile. Odorico managed to convince supporters to donate money to the club, and after the club's financial fragility had been solved, the FFF accepted the Stade Rennais amongst the 20 clubs to participate in the first season. Olympique Lillois won Division 1 season 1932/1933 of the French Association Football League, the first professional football season in France, defeating ^[4]

Rennes' start to professional football was encouraging, with a 6th place in their first season. However, the club's financial situation didn't improve, and by 1937 the club had to be subsidised by the town of Rennes after the mayor was put under pressure by local commerce. When the second World War started in 1939, the French football league was disbanded, and the Stade Rennais Université Club reverted to amateur status. For two years, the Stade only played in the French Cup, as well as friendly matches against local sides. This is about the football competition for the rugby see Coupe de France (rugby. In 1941, Rennes took part in the Occupied Area Division of the French League, but finished a disappointing 7th out of 9. The following season confirmed Rennes low level with a 14th position out of 16 in the North Zone Division.

In 1943, the Vichy régime instaured the interfederal French football league.

1990-1998

Those years were the beginning of stability at the club. But the season 1990-1991 was a failure, despite players such as François Omam-Biyik or Arnold Oosterveer, but the team was saved thanks to administrative relegations of OGC Nice and Stade Brestois.
