History
In 2013, the club joined the Première Ligue de soccer du Québec, a Division III league, fielding a team in the men's division.[2] During their inaugural season, they won both the League title and the League Cup.[3] They repeated as league champions in 2015 and 2016.[4] By winning the league title, they participated in the Inter-Provincial Cup against the champion of League1 Ontario to determine the Canadian Division III champion.[5] In 2015, they were defeated by the Oakville Blue Devils,[6] but in 2016, they won the title by defeating Vaughan Azzurri.[7]
They added a team in the women's division of the PLSQ for the 2019 season with Lakers du Lac Saint-Louis transferring their team to CSMRO.[8][9]
In 2019, the club partnered with Major League Soccer club Montreal Impact, joining their Centre d'identification et perfectionnement (scouting and development centre).[10]
