"All for one and one for all, united we stand divided we fall." wrote Alexandre Dumas, in the most widely read novel in French History, The Three Musketeers. The legends of Paris are rich with Musketeers. Once the most elite military unit, later the inspiration for the greatest adventure story ever written, the Musketeers embody all the values that a football team representing Paris aspires to be: unity, humanity, valor, strength, peace, and justice. All are foundational to the dynamic, diverse, and culturally singular Ville de Lumiere'.
The home of the Musketeers is Stade Jean-Bouin, which is the benchmark in the American Football stadium landscape in Europe and sets the standard for other venues of its kind across the continent. The 20,000-seat state-of-the-art facility located in the 16th Arrondissement of Paris directly next to Parc de Princes (PSG) and Roland Garros (French Open Tennis). The historic venue, opened in 1925, was renovated and expanded in 2013, and serves as the home stadium of Stade Francais Rugby team, FC Versailles, and the Paris Saint-Germin Feminines football team. The arena is structured to create a distinct American Football atmosphere as fans in the front row are just 25 feet from the sidelines. Its dynamic roof and exoskeleton is a curving structure that wraps the entire arena in an elegant metal shell to create an architectural statement of power and elegance.
