Club history
ASC Saint Apollinaire-Talant RC came about as a result of a merger between the rugby section of ASC Saint Apollinaire and Talant Rugby Club. Talant RC played their home games at the Complexe Sportif Marie-Thérèse Eyquem in Talant, a commune to the north-west of Dijon. The facilities at Marie-Thérèse are still used occasionally by Saint Apo-Talant for training purposes.
From season 2006/07 until relegation at the end of the 2009/10 season, the club were in Fédérale 3, (the 5th Division). Season 2010/11 brought a new experienced coach; Félicien Kus, formerly of CS Nuiton. The club was quickly heading in the right direction with some solid results and the title of Honneur Burgundy/Franche-Comté plus an impressive run in the French Championship to boot.
Training
The senior teams hold training sessions on Wednesdays and Fridays starting at 7.30pm until around 9-9.30pm. The club welcome all prospective players to attend.
