Edouard Gasqueton

[1] In 1907, a group of sportsmen, including the five Capbern-Gasqueton brothers, gathered in Bordeux to found the Vie au Grand Air du Médoc, a multi-sports club which initially only had three sections, football, field hockey, and cricket.

[10] In December 1916, his older brother Henri, as the president of VGA Médoc, was at the origin of the creation of the Ligue du Midi de Football Association (LMFA), bringing together clubs from the South-West and Languedoc.

[11] The VGA Médoc won a three-peat of LMFA championships between 1917 and 1919; in the latter final, Edouard was the captain, playing alongside his younger brother Lionel in a 2–1 win over Stade Cettois.

[12] This league was refused recognition by the USFSA, so it affiliated with Jules Rimet's LFA, which "nationalized" itself and organized its first French Championship in 1918, and Médoc reached the final against Club Français on 3 May, in which Edouard, although recently injured, started as the captain, with the local press stating that he "owed only his courage to holding his place".

[4][5] On 11 April 1920, Edouard started in the semifinals of the 1919–20 Coupe de France, but despite doing so alongside his brothers Lionel and Etienne, Médoc lost 1–2 to the eventual champions CA Paris.
