CS Longueuil

Club Soccer Longueuil is a Canadian semi-professional soccer club based in Longueuil, Quebec. Since 2014, the club has competed in Ligue1 Québec.[1]

History

The club was originally founded in 1970. In 2014, the club joined the Première Ligue de soccer du Québec, a Division III league, fielding a team in the men's division.[2] They had a successful debut season, winning the league championship and advancing to the final of the League Cup, where they lost in the final to FC Gatineau.[3] By winning the league title, they participated in the first Inter-Provincial Cup against the champion of League1 Ontario to determine the Canadian Division III champion, in 2014.[4][5] In the Inter-Provincial Cup, in 2014, they faced League1 Ontario champions Toronto FC Academy, who defeated them over the two-legged fixture, losing the first leg at home 4-0 to TFCA[6] and drawing the second leg away 0-0.[7][8] By 2016, however, their budget was slashed in half, requiring them to field rosters with a greater number of young players.[9]

In 2020, they had decided to add a team in the women's division of the Première Ligue de soccer du Québec.[10] However, the 2020 season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While some clubs opted out of the season upon the league restart, the club decided to remain part of the league and compete.[11]
