Mayol, Félix Mayol and the Pilou-Pilou

Toulon plays at the Mayol stadium, opened in the early twenties in the city centre, facing the harbour, and capable of hosting around ten-eight thousand spectators. It is named after Félix Mayol, a famous singer from Toulon who donated the land to the club. Before each match, the public sings the Pilou-Pilou, a war cry created in the 1940s by Marcel Bodrero, the club's full-back, and revived by the supporters in the early 2000s. The atmosphere there is one of the most passionate in Europe.

Home, authentic, women's or children's: which RCT jersey

The home jersey in red and black and the away jersey are first available in supporter version, with a straight cut and comfortable fabric, to be taken in your usual size. The authentic version, identical to that of the players, is lighter and very fitted: one size up is recommended to wear it off the pitch. The women's cut is more fitted at the waist and narrower at the shoulders, with specific sizes. Lastly, the children's jersey, home or away, is chosen based on the child's stature rather than their age.
