History

The Corsaires de Dunkerque were formed in 1979. After playing in the FFHG Division 1 league through the nineties the team moved up to the Ligue Magnus for the start of the 2002-03 season. After surviving relegation in the 2003-04 season the Corsaires were relegated back to Division 1 due to financial reasons. In 2007 the team were sent to the Division 1 relegation round and were relegated to the FFHG Division 2 for the 2007-08 season. In their fourth season in Division 2 the Corsaires won the 2011 playoffs and earned promotion back to Division 2.
