RC St-Gaudens XIII League Placings : 2000-23

RC St-Gaudens XIII or the Bears are based in the town of the same name, in the Haute-Garonne region of south-western France. Founded in 1958, they enjoyed success during the 1960's and early 1970's. They were also doing really well come the turn of the century with some strong league table placings. 

They hit a wall in 2009 and soon after left the Elite league. After ten teams were reinstated in 2016-17, they were back but not with a bang. Clearly, the move back to the top hasn't been an easy one but at least they are giving it a go. 

Two consecutive years with the wooden spoon. That's one angry bear! The response was a 6th place finish so a real positive for a club that was really firing earlier this century.
