Stade de Reims is a professional football club based in Reims, France, with a history dating to 18 June 1931. The club succeeded the Société Sportive du Parc Pommery and developed into one of the most successful and historically important clubs in French football. Reims plays its home matches at Stade Auguste-Delaune and operates its headquarters and training centre, Centre de Vie Raymond Kopa, in nearby Bétheny. The club's greatest period came during the 1950s and early 1960s, when it established itself as a dominant force in French football and became one of the country's first clubs with a major international reputation. Stade de Reims has won six French top-flight championships, in 1949, 1953, 1955, 1958, 1960 and 1962, as well as two Coupe de France titles in 1950 and 1958. It also reached the European Cup final twice, in 1956 and 1959. The club became renowned for its attractive passing-based style of football and produced or developed internationally recognised players including Raymond Kopa and Just Fontaine. After periods outside the top division, Reims returned to Ligue 1 in 2018 and continued to strengthen its professional sporting structure. The club places significant emphasis on youth development, with its academy having produced players who progressed to the first team and higher levels of football. It also operates women's football and has invested in modern training and development infrastructure. Stade de Reims describes itself as a club combining professional football, education, academy development, marketing, communication, ticketing and hospitality. Its identity is closely associated with the Champagne region, the city of Reims, and its traditional red-and-white colours. The organisation continues to build on its historic achievements while focusing on sustainable sporting development, player development, women's football and long-term growth.
