Notes:
The Edusport Academy is a residential football academy based in Scotland, for young French footballers. Players are placed at 'support clubs' in Scotland to gain experience. In 2014 the club successfully applied to enter a team in the South of Scotland League, playing their home matches at the Hamilton Palace Sports Ground. From the 2015/16 season, the club moved their home games to Galabank and a groundshare with SPFL side Annan Athletic. In 2019, the club moved back to Lanarkshire to Bothwellhaugh.
