Chamois Niortais Football Club were a French football club based in the commune of Niort, in the Deux-Sèvres department of Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France. They were founded in 1925 by Charles Boinot, the son of the owner of a local chamois leather factory. Their home stadium was the Stade René Gaillard in Niort, which has a capacity of 10,898. For most of their existence, Chamois Niortais traditionally played in an entirely blue home kit, although away kits regularly differed.
