History

First formed in 2008[1], the Perpignan Tigers played their first friendly match in early 2009 against the Montpellier Firesharks[2] before competing in the Championnat de France for the first time during the 2009/2010 season, finishing 5th overall[3]. The club did not participate in the 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 season of the league due to a lack of players before returning to play in the 2014/2015 season in which they finished 8th[4]. The following season the Tigers just missed out on the finals in finishing 5th in the league[5].

The team hosted the 2016 French Cup, finishing 4th overall[6]. The Tigers also hosted the 2016 edition of the Coupe du Sud (Southern France Cup) finishing as champions[7][8].
