History
The team was founded in 1941 as a merger of Football Club Aixois and Union Sportive Aixoise football clubs. Their best result was playing in French Division 1 in the 1967–68 season, where they finished bottom. Four years later they were further relegated to third level. They spent the following four decades playing in lower level amateur levels. In 2014, the club was renamed from AS Aix to Pays d'Aix FC to mark a rupture with the club's complicated past.[3] As of the 2019–20 season, Pays d'Aix played in Provence Départemental 3 in the tenth tier of the French league system. In 2021 they returned to their historical name.
