Racing Club de France was founded in 1882 and has a rich history, despite the club's current status as an amateur club. Racing was one of the founding members of the French Division 1 and is one of the most successful clubs in French football history having won one Ligue 1 title, which came during the 1935–36 season and five Coupe de France titles, which is tied for fourth-best among clubs. Racing also played in the USFSA-sanctioned league, which was France's first-ever league championship. Racing made its debut in the league in 1899 and won the league in 1907 having previously finished as runner-up in 1902 and 1903.

Racing have unearthed several talented players during its early existence. Notably players who played at the club include Roger Marche, Oscar Heisserer, Thadée Cisowski, Raoul Diagne, David Ginola, Pierre Littbarski and Enzo Francescoli among others. Diagne spent a decade with the club from 1930–1940 and, in 1931, became the first black player to play in the French national team. He later played on the team at the 1938 FIFA World Cup alongside Abdelkader Ben Bouali, his Racing teammate, who was one of the first players of North African descent to play for the national team. Between 2009 and 2012, the club moved to nearby Levallois-Perret after the club reached a financial agreement with the commune.
