Versailles

Two local sides carried the football in Versailles before there was one to speak of: Racing Club de Versailles and Compagnons Sportifs Versaillais, merged in 1989 into a single Football Club de Versailles 78. The navy shirt kept from that union runs to a metallic gold trim, a nod to the gilded ironwork across town at the Palace, and the away kit answers it in white.

The academy behind it has sent out Thierry Henry, Hatem Ben Arfa and Jérôme Rothen among others who went on to make their names elsewhere. The club itself has stayed lower down the pyramid, in the National, the third tier, and its one sustained run came in 2021–22: promotion via the Championnat National 2 title paired with a Coupe de France campaign in which a fourth-tier side eliminated Ligue 2 opposition in Dijon and Toulouse on the way to the semi-finals.

Home has moved more than the results have. The traditional ground, Stade Montbauron in Versailles, gave way in 2022 to three seasons at Stade Jean-Bouin in Paris, forced by the cost and state of local infrastructure, with a brief stop at Chambly's Stade Walter-Luz along the way. The 2025–26 season finds the club at Stade Georges Lefèvre in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, a ground that until recently trained Paris Saint-Germain's women's team, holding 2,164 seats against Montbauron's 7,545.

No fixture in Versailles carries the sharpened edge of a settled derby.
