Racing Club Albi XIII (once named Racing Club Albigeois XIII) yet more recently also going by the name of Albi Tigers are a team in Albi in the Occitanie region. Commencing in 1934 as a foundation club (the second club formed) they were most successful in the 1950's but had a good spell in the 1970's too. After the forced merger with a Rugby Union during the shameful Vichy era, they returned to the forbidden game as soon as possible.
Fast forward to this century and there weren't in the top flight. Moments in 2002 plus 2008 but regularly since 2016. They have nestled nicely into mid-table status.
That continues down to the 2022-23 season. The top sides are still proving a tough nut to crack. A losing finalist in the 2023 cup final was a fine result.
