It was in the years 1947-1948, that a group of workers and civil servants, all football enthusiasts, decided to create the ASEC MIMOSAS.
They originally came from Dahomey (Benin), Upper Volta (Burkina Faso), Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, Senegal, Lebanon and France.
They had a simple and generous idea: that the children should have fun… by playing football, and so did Guy Fabre, the first professional coach of ASEC from 1952-1953.
