The 2009–10 season marks Chamois Niortais' 84th season as a football club. After their relegation from the Championnat National in 2008–09 following a 17th-placed finish, Chamois Niortais return to the Championnat de France amateur, the fourth tier of the French football league system, for the first time since 1984. The relegation also saw Chamois Niortais lose the professional status that they had held since achieving promotion to Division 2 in 1985, becoming a semi-professional team.

Final standings; as of 1 August 2009 |
For their pre-season, Chamois Niortais played friendly matches against a series of Championnat de France amateur and Championnat de France amateur 2 sides. Two of the teams, Les Herbiers VF and Vendée Fontenay Foot, will be in the same division as Niort this season.
The team began their pre-season campaign with a convincing 6–0 victory over CFA2 side SO Châtellerault at the Stade de la Montée Rouge, with the goals being scored by six different players including new signings Djibril Konaté, Mouhamadou Diaw and Germain Lugier. They followed this up with their only pre-season game to be played at the Stade René Gaillard, a comfortable 2–0 defeat of Les Herbiers VF, where both goals were scored by long-time Chamois Niortais striker Arnaud Gonzalez.
On 22 July 2009, trialist Gilles Fabien scored a hat-trick and recent signings Diaw and Konaté each scored their second goals of the pre-season as Chamois Niortais drew 5–5 with local club Vendée Fontenay Foot. Three days later, Chamois Niortais won away from home at CFA2 outfit USSA Vertou by two goals to one, eventually scraping victory thanks to a second-half strike from trialist Si Salem. The team's final pre-season friendly ended in a "cruel" 0–3 defeat to CFA2 side SO Cholet, with the result being described as "one to be placed among the accidents".[20]

Coupe de France[]
Along with all the clubs in the Championnat de France amateur, Chamois Niortais entered the competition at the fourth-round stage this season. The draw for the fourth round was made on 23 September 2009 and Niort were drawn at home to Division d'Honneur outfit Angoulême CFC. Niort reached the fifth round with a convincing 6–2 victory over Angoulême, a game which saw the club's first hat-trick of the season, scored by Mouhamadou Diaw, and were again drawn against a Division d'Honneur side, this time away to Ligugé. On 17 October 2009, the side secured a 5–0 win over Ligugé to progress to the sixth round. After another 5–0 victory over SO Châtellerault in the sixth round, the side were handed a seventh round away tie at seventh-division outfit FC Saint-Jean-le-Blanc. Niort were eventually knocked out of the competition in the eighth round following a 3–1 defeat away at SA Thiers.
