Montreal Roses FC (officially known as Roses FC; Template:Lang-fr) is a professional women's soccer club based in Montreal, Quebec that will compete in the Northern Super League, in the top flight of the Canadian soccer league system. One of two professional soccer clubs in the province of Quebec alongside CF Montréal, it is owned by Isabèle Chevalier and Jean-François Crevier, led by Annie Larouche, and managed by Marinette Pichon. The blue rose is featured prominently in the club's branding, which uses blue, red, and white as primary colours, and black and gold as secondary colours. The club will play their first season in 2025, as one of the six charter members of the league.
History
Roses FC were co-founded by Quebecer entrepreneurs Isabèle Chevalier and Jean-François Crevier, who bought a licence for a team in the Northern Super League, then tentatively known as Project 8, in July 2023.[1] Chevalier, who gained notoriety as a "dragon" on both the French and French-Canadian adaptations of Dragons' Den, sought a team in the league as a passion project inspired by her advocacy for women's sports, while Crevier, whose companies manufacture and distribute lubricants, sought involvement in the league after news reports covering its establishment piqued his interest.[2][3][4] Their acquisition, along with regulatory approval by Canada Soccer, was achieved in May 2024,[1][5] and the league publicly announced Roses FC and Ottawa Rapid FC as the last two of its six charter members at the espnW Summit Canada shortly after.[a][7][8]
During the club's development, Chevalier and Crevier sought advice from former Laval Comets and Canadian national team player Amy Walsh, and former Montreal Alouettes president Patrick Boivin.[4] They appointed former Montréal Alouettes and Montreal Alliance executive Annie Larouche as the first president of Roses FC, and former Juvisy and French national team player Marinette Pichon as its first sporting director.[9][10] Larouche, who was still an executive at the Alliance when she was nominated, served out the rest of her tenure at the Alliance to the end of the 2024 CEBL season.[11] Pichon had immigrated to Quebec in 2019, following her tenure as Juvisy's general manager, and participated in the local soccer scene prior to her appointment.[11][12] Pichon appointed Robert Rositoiu, who achieved a League1 Canada treble as coach of A.S. Blainville Féminin in 2022, as Roses FC's first ever head coach.[13][14] Fifteen investors were secured for the club, some of which were appointed as brand ambassadors under the title of "investor-ambassadors" – these included former and current men's national team players Patrice Bernier and Maxime Crépeau, and Olympic track and field champion Bruny Surin.[15][16]
Roses FC were the last of the six charter members of the league to unveil their branding, and did so at a highly-publicized event held at Dalhousie station in Old Montreal on 8 October 2024, attended by Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Samuel Piette, Marie-Philip Poulin, and members of the men's national team, along with various club and league executives and investors.[15][17][18] The club initially found difficulty in securing a long-term tenancy at a venue in Montreal, and will adopt a touring model for their inaugural 2025 season, in which their home games will be played in various venues.[4][19]
Identity
The official name of the club is Roses FC, though Montreal Roses FC and Roses de Montréal FC are also used in the club's official English- and French-language media, respectively.[20][21] The club's branding was designed by Quebec-based advertising agencies Cossette and GRDN,[15] who worked with the club throughout late 2023 and early-to-mid 2024 to workshop over forty ideas for the club's identity.[22] The traditional colours of sports teams in Montreal; blue, red, and white; are also used by the club as its primary colours, while black and gold are used as secondary colours.[23][24] However, the hues of blue and red are intentionally different from those used by other Montreal sports clubs.[24] The choice of blue and red also symbolize the "diverse cultural heritage shared between Quebéc and Canada."[23][25] The typography used in the club's media was inspired by the Farine Five Roses sign prominent on the Montreal skyline.[25][26]
The club's crest features a artificially-dyed blue rose, a subversive reference to rose motifs in Montreal culture, intended to evoke the idea of "[making] the impossible possible" as blue roses are "impossible in nature."[27] The identical name of roses in English and French, and their recognition as symbols of femininity, were also factors in its selection as the club's name and logo.[17][27] "Roses", "MTL", and "FC" are written in varied gold fonts along the top of the crest.[26]
Stadium
Roses FC's training ground is the Centre Sportif Bois-de-Boulogne in Laval, Quebec, which will undertake two rounds of renovations to accommodate the club.[13]
Organization
Roses FC are independently owned by Isabèle Chevalier and Jean-François Crevier.[1][5] It is led by Annie Larouche as its president, while Marinette Pichon manages the club as its sporting director.[9][10] The club's board of directors also includes Mélissa Beauchesne in the operations portfolio,[28] Antoine Chevalier in ticketing,[29] Andréanne Gagné in culture and finance,[30] Baptiste Robert in partnerships,[31] and Nathalie Vachon in strategy and communications.[32] A number of investors hold shares in the club, some of which also serve as brand ambassadors for the club under the title of "investor-ambassadors". The investors include: LCI Education, Coralie Beauchamp, Patrice Bernier, Sylvie Bovet, Malek Chamoun, Maxime Crépeau, Isabelle Éthier, Christiane Germain, Julie du Page, Mark Pathy, Josée Perreault, Caitlin Rose, Eddy Jr. Savoie, and Bruny Surin.[15][16][33]
Team
Robert Rositoiu serves as the club's head coach.[13][14]
