History Early years The ambition of a group of friends was to create a space where young people could meet in search of leisure, hobbies especially after hard days of schooling, mostly studying. After careful consideration and various proposals, it was decided to set up a classic football team and the name of Paradou Athletic Club (by abbreviation PAC) was chosen. As for the colors of the club the choice was made in a really anecdotal way, indeed several proposals were made but none was unanimous. We were in the midst of a discussion when the Swedish ambassador passed in his vehicle with his country's flag, the idea immediately emerged. (Yellow and blue).
