The club originated as Amiens Athlétic Club (AAC), established by a group of players from the Association du Lycée d'Amiens.

After a brief period of professional play that began in 1933 and ended in 1952, Amiens SC returned to professionalism in 1993. The club experienced a resurgence in the 2000s, playing in Ligue 2 from 2001 to 2009, and making a dramatic return to the second tier in the 2016-17 season. Their remarkable performance that season saw them finish as runners-up, earning promotion to Ligue 1 for the first time in their history.

Career & Clubs
Amiens Athlétic Club (AAC) was set up in 1901 by a group of players from the Association du Lycée d'Amiens, French schoolboy champions in 1902, 1903, and 1904. AAC crushed its first opponents, Saint-Quentin, 13–0 a few months after its creation. In April 1902, the Comité de Picardie de l'U.S.F.S.A was established by the then-president of the AAC (Henri-Frédéric Petit). AAC dominated the early USFSA league for the first 12 seasons. In 1909, the club got a new ground, at the Henry Daussy Park, allowing an attendance of more than 1,000. In 1933, the club got its first professional section, later abandoned in 1952, before becoming professional again in 1993. Since the early days, AAC has undergone two name changes: In 1961, to Sporting Club d'Amiens, and in 1989, as Amiens Sporting Club. Amiens played in Ligue 2 between 2001 and 2009. The team made a return to the second tier of French football for the 2016–17 season, after finishing 3rd in the Championnat National. Their first season back in Ligue 2 was the most successful ever, as they finished runners-up and were promoted to top-tier Ligue 1 for the first time ever. It was a dramatic promotion, too, as they would have dropped out of the promotion places but for a last-gasp winning goal in the final game against Reims. Amiens first season in Ligue 1 ended in survival with a comfortable 13th-placed finish in the table. In the 2018–19 season, Amiens finished in 15th place on the table and secured their survival after a 2–1…
