History
Étoile Sportive du Sahel (Arabic: النجم الرياضي الساحلي), known as ES Sahel or simply ESS for short, is a Tunisian football club based in Sousse in the Sahel region of Tunisia. Their home stadium, Sousse Olympic Stadium, has a capacity of 50,000 spectators. The club is currently playing in the Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1, the Tunisian top-flight football league. The club was founded on 11 May 1925 after a general meeting under the chairmanship of Chedly Boujemla, Ali Laârbi and Ahmed Zeglaoui, at the headquarters of the Association of the ancient French-Arab School in Laroussi Zarouk Street, in the heart of the old town of Sousse.
