History

Olympic of Puppet

The Olympic one of Puppet was born in 1895, in a coffee located at the angle of the suburb Saint Martin's day and Magenta boulevard, fusion between Parisian Star and the Athletic Company of Puppet.

The Olympic one is one of the clubs high-speed motorboats of the L.F.A. assembled to Paris by Jules Rimet. It is necessary however to await the Great War to see the club registering its name with the prize list of this league with the titles 1915 and 1916. The May 14th 1916, the Olympic one of Puppet gains even the inter-federal trophy by 3-0 vis-a-vis the Star of the Two Lakes.

In 1917 - 1918, the Olympic one, which evolves/moves very of white vêtu, account of many taken refuge Belgian players, of which the international guard Rene Decoux. Its right wing, Jules Dewaquez - Paul Landauer, made devastations in unfavourable defenses.

The Olympic one takes share with the very first edition of the Coupe de France. The Olympian ones leave the Legion Saint-Michel (4-1), the Lyon OR (1-5), the French Club (3-2) and CASG Paris (2-1) to find itself finally. As of the kickoff of this first final of the Coupe de France, the Olympic one dominates clearly FC Lyon and registers three goals per Fievet (doubled) and Louis Darques. The incident of the match is incontestably the hook of the right stripped by Olympian Decoux on a Lyons attacker. The referee, Mr. Bataille, want to expel the culprit. In a chivalrous gesture, the captain of Lyon, Ebrard, intercedes in his favor. The score was null and virgin at this moment…

Olympic of Paris

The Olympic one of Puppet amalgamates with Sporting Club of Vaugirard and becomes the Olympic one of Paris as of 1918. This union makes it possible to metamorphose the Olympic one in a large general sports club, with the measurement of Racing or French Stage. In the basket, the club of Vaugirard also brings its green colors and a splendid stage of 15.000 places: the Stage Bergeyre. Its patron, Jacques Sigrand, made it build boulevard Simon-Bolivar, on the slopes of the Chaumont Hillocks.

In Coupe de France 1919, the Olympic one atomizes Margarita Club of Vésinet (8-0), explodes the Gallia Club Paris (7-2), sorrow vis-a-vis the Racing club of France (4-3) then vis-a-vis the CA Paris (2-1) and with VGA Medoc of Bordeaux (4-3); but the Olympic one is found again finally. After being returned twice with the score, the Olympic one, decreased by the absences of its international Belgians (Decoux, Van Ruey, Lambrechts and Verhoeven), is inclined finally to the 118e minute, 3-2. In 1920, the Olympic tomb (2-1) vis-a-vis the Olympic Inhabitant of Lille in eighth of finale, it.

The Olympic one removes the championship of Paris 1921 in front of the Red Star. In Coupe de France, the Olympic one arrives once again finally after being removed from Strasbourg, of FC This, the CA Paris and the U.S. Tourcoing, after prolongation. The aces of Olympic are Jules Dewaquez, the winger international law with the attached eyes of Chinese, Louis Darques, it inside-left, Eugene Langenove, right back and, with aims, Maurice Cottenet. This giant discovered the foot in the priests, in Jeanne d' Arc Sports, but the Olympic one succeeded in tearing off it in Raincy. It also replaced Chayriguès in team of France. The victory finally is exploited a penalty that Olympian Dewaquez dispatches in the arms of the gatekeeper of Red Star, Chayriguès. The Olympic one is inclined 2-1.

In all the courses of Parisian schools, two clans coexist: partisans of Olympic and those of the Red Star. It is all the more true since the crises which the CA Paris passes through.

Besides semi-finalists of the Coupe de France 1922 (eliminated by Rennes, 3-0), 1923 (left by Red Star, 1-0) and 1925 (eliminated by Rouen, 2-1), and in quarterfinals in 1924 (left by Le Havre A.C., 2-1), the Olympian ones confirm their great value by gaining the Tournament of the New year of Paris 1925 by being binding 2-1 finally vis-a-vis the Czechs of Céshoslovan Prague.

In spite of its dimension of love to the zenith, the Olympian club is exproprié of its ground of the Chaumont Hillocks. The stage must be shaven to make place at residential buildings… With general amazement, the April 28th 1926, Red Star announces his fusion with the Olympic one! It is in fact a pure and simple absorption of Olympic, club without stage, by the prestigious tenants of the stage of Saint-Ouen. The Olympian club bequeaths its colors (those of the SC Vaugirard in fact), the green, and a name, Olympic Red Star, of 1926 with 1967.
