[edit] Historical information
US Le Mans Sports Club were founded in 1889, but it wasn't until 1902 that a football club existed within it. In 1910, Le Mans qualified for the Championnat de la France in 1910 but are heavily overturned by Saint-Servan. Gaining a huge reputation up to World War I, they plunged into obscurity by World War II before joining the league in 1942.
Le Mans UC72 exist thanks to a merge between USM and SOM on June 12, 1985. It was at this time that their coach, Christian Gourcuff, joined as coach.
