It’s a win-win situation. By recruiting Louise Botte, the Sentinel of Brienon-sur-Armançon gives a new dimension to its female team.
“She was without a club and she gave us the pleasure of accepting our proposal, without any problem since we have known each other for years”, explains François Degrange, president of Brien.
The young woman, in fact, joins archers whom she has known for a long time in young competitions. “By dint of crossing the Brienonnais in the youth tournaments, I met François in particular and, one thing leading to another, he came to offer me a place in the D1 team”, explains the 19-year-old archer. student in animal osteoarthritis in Cluny (Saône-et-Loire). “I started archery ten years ago in Jaux (Oise) and I totally changed region! “
“I had never been here before today”
Since her competitive debut in 2012, she has accumulated scarves and national medals. “There is something that I remember well: it is my first medal, in gold, it was in 2015 in the minimal category at 30 meters! It was in federal” she explains.
It is very well equipped! In addition, they have a great room plan that makes you want to come more often, to take valuable advice and take advantage of the facilities.
Louise Botte discovered her new club on Saturday, May 29, during a competition organized by La Sentinelle. “I had never been here before today, she admits. It’s very well equipped! In addition, they have a beautiful project for a room that makes you want to come more often, to take valuable advice and take advantage of the facilities. There are not many venues like this in France. “
Team shooting, a “great opportunity”
Integrating into the D1 team shouldn’t be a problem for him. “I especially know Elodie (Kaczmareck) that I encountered in the field. And then Bérengère (shoe) … Bérengère, what! “Laughs Louise Botte, mimicking the obvious.” But it is almost my first experience of team shooting. I did it in my old club, but it was mixed. It’s a great opportunity for me. “
The Division 1 will be limited this season to a single round, at the end of July. Until then, Louise Botte should have the opportunity to get to know her new teammates better. In particular, team training is planned instead of one of the canceled D1 rounds.
