History

Bergerac Foot was formed in 1916 under the name EF Bergerac. The club achieved promotion to the CFA in 2008 after getting promoted from CFA 2. The club operates a reserve team and their kit manufacturer is the American sportswear company Nike.

On 19 December 2021, Bergerac eliminated Ligue 1 side Metz from the Coupe de France following a 5–4 win on penalties in the round of 64. It was the first time that the club eliminated a first-tier side from the competition.^[1] In the round of 16 of the competition on 30 January 2022, Bergerac eliminated Ligue 1 club Saint-Étienne in a 1–0 victory.^[2] However, the side from Dordogne were eventually eliminated by fellow fourth-tier team Versailles in a penalty shoot-out in the quarter-finals.^[3]

In April 2023, it was announced that the club's first team would be merging with Trélissac-Antonne Périgord FC ahead of the 2024–25 season.^[4]
