On 27 October 1944, the Ligue Nationale de Football (National Football League) was officially founded with Gambardella being installed as the organization's first president. The league changed its name back to <i>Groupement des clubs autorisés</i> shortly after and kept the name until 1970 before returning to Ligue Nationale de Football.
