Association Sportive de Saint-Priest, commonly known as AS Saint-Priest, is a French football club founded in 1945 and based in Saint-Priest in the Rhône department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, near Lyon. The club was originally established as Club Sportif de Saint-Priest before merging with Stade Auto Lyonnais in 1953. The organisation adopted the name Association Sportive de Saint-Priest in 1980. AS Saint-Priest has a strong reputation for player development and youth football. Its academy structure includes teams competing at regional and national levels, including U14, U15, U16, U17 National, U18 and U19 National categories. The club also operates women's football and futsal sections, giving it a broad sporting structure extending beyond its senior men's team. The club's senior men's first team currently competes in Championnat National 2, the fourth level of the French football pyramid, while its reserve team competes at regional level. AS Saint-Priest has achieved several significant sporting milestones throughout its history. The club reached the third tier of French football for the first time in 1972 and subsequently returned to that level on multiple occasions. It won the French National 2 championship in 1998 and has also won national third-tier group championships in 2013, 2017 and 2024. In 1995, the club won the first edition of the French Futsal Cup. Its youth development has produced players who subsequently reached professional football, contributing to the club's reputation as an important football development centre in the Lyon metropolitan area. The organisation describes football as a means of education, personal development and transmission of civic values, reflecting its community-oriented identity. The club plays its home matches at Stade Jacques Joly in Saint-Priest, with its facilities and club operations centred around the city. The Fédération Française de Football also records AS Saint-Priest and Stade Jacques Joly at 13 Avenue Jean Jaurès, Saint-Priest. AS Saint-Priest therefore combines competitive senior football, structured youth development, women's football, futsal and community-focused sporting activities within one established football organisation.
