Étoile Carouge FC is a Swiss football team based in Carouge which was founded in 1904. It currently plays in the Swiss 1. Liga Promotion. It played in top division during periods of 1923-1933, 1934-1935, 1977-1978 and 1997-1998.
Carouge had survived several seasons in the second tier of Swiss football, the Challenge League, until the 2011–12 season. Due to restructuring of the Swiss Football League, it was announced that the bottom 6 teams of the 10 team division would be relegated to a newly formed division in 2012, rather than the usual two teams being relegated. Carouge was close to survival but unfortunately finished four points from safety, and were relegated to the 1. Liga Promotion.
