[edit] History
[edit] Foundation
On November 15, 2006, the Montreal Impact announced the creation of a farm team in Trois-Rivières, and that the name would be chosen from the result of a contest.
The name Trois-Rivières Attak FC and the logo were presented to the public on January 17, 2007, together with the first signings Nicolas Lesage and Jean-Louis Bessé.
[edit] First season
The Attak were a surprise in their inaugural season by being competitive in the CSL right from the beginning. Even more, they won the Open Canada Cup with a 3-0 victory in the final against opponents ColumbusClan FC. In the league, they finished second in the National Division and reached the playoff semi-final, where they eventually lost against the Serbian White Eagles.
Striker Nicolas Lesage was crowned the CSL 2007 goal top scorer with 16 goals.
