History
The Stade Max Rousie was built and opened in 1955 for the primary use of the local rugby league team US Villeneuve XIII. The stadium was initially called Myre Mory Stadium, named after a local soldier who fought in World War I and was killed during World War II in 1940. Situated on the left bank of the river Lot, near the Lycee Georges Leygues, the stadium was given a major refurbishment in 2011. In addition, an indoor arena was built. At this time, the sports complex was renamed in honour of Max Rousie, a former SA Villeneuve XIII player and French international. The stadium currently hosts sports including rugby league, athletics, basketball, tennis, and pelote basque. It also has two training pitches and floodlights.
