Rugby league history
On 27 November 1990, a touring Australian Kangaroos side beat a French Presidents XIII 46-18 in front of 3,000 fans, the only match Rugby League Project records at this venue. AS Corbeil-Essonnes XIII is a long-standing French rugby league club, later winning the Elite Two Championship in 2008-09 and National Division 2 in 2010-11, but the exact identity and history of the ground used for this 1990 tour fixture could not be confirmed beyond Rugby League Project's own venue label.
