History
In 1905, Union Sportive Pontoisienne became the seventh club registered in the French Football Federation. In 1936, the club gained professional status, participating in the 1936–37 Division 3, a league that was abolished at the end of the campaign. The club subsequently returned to its amateur status. In 1947, a merger with Olympique de Saint-Denis created Olympique de Pontoise. The club again merged in 1984, this time with ASAN Football, to form Olympique de Cergy-Pontoise.
In 2005, Cergy Pontoise Football Club was formed following a merger of Olympique de Cergy-Pontoise and Union Sportive Cergy Clos.
Cergy Pontoise reached the seventh round of the Coupe de France for the first time in the club's history in the 2021–22 edition of the competition.
