The Cassier men's national soccer team (Gaullican: Équipe du Cassier de soccer masculin (ECSM)) represents Cassier at international soccer competitions at the senior men's level. The team is overseen by the Cassien Soccer Association and is a member of IFF and FPAF.
Formed in 1924 the ESCM has participated in numerous international soccer tournaments, such as the IFF Coupe du monde and FPAF Championships. The team's success overall has been limited, historically failing to make it past the first few rounds of the group knockout phase of the competition. The ESCM's tumultuous history and poor track has resulted in its nickname Les Bleus (The Blues), a reference to blue uniform's and the disappointment felt by Cassien sports fans due to the team's lack of success.
The ESCM's most recent IFF appearance was at the 2019 Coupe du monde, and will compete at the 2023 IFF Coupe du monde in Ardesia.
History
