They will be distributed in three rooms of the town: two at Cosec and one at Ricoquais.

What protocol is in place?

In the current pandemic situation, we must put in place a strict health protocol. There will be a covid referent in each room to ensure its application. The three rooms make it possible to limit the number of players present and only players, coaches and volunteers will be allowed to enter. The protocol involves respecting barrier gestures: compulsory mask in the room as well as outside, except on the field, application of hydroalcoholic gel before and after each match, marking on the ground for physical distancing, traffic plan, barnums outside for catering … In the event of non-compliance with the health protocol on the game board, the persons concerned are not authorized to continue the competition.

What are the club’s ambitions for this season?

After the first two days, the National 2 team can revise its ambitions upwards and try to play the rise in N1. The pre National team has, as objective, the rise in N3. For the regional teams R1 and R2, the objective, at a minimum, is the maintenance and the climbs of these two teams are conditioned by the rise of the N2 in N1 and the PN in N3. Many groups play interclub in departmental and, this year, two veteran teams are created with the aim of having fun on the ground. We also want to continue to train young people to the top level.
