Beziers have won eleven French championship titles since its establishment in 1911, but have fallen down the tables in recent years, even facing the ignominy of relegation to the Federale 1 at the end of 2008-09 season.

Critics of the trend say it distorts the market, inflating player wages and ultimately making the sport unsustainable.
