The Vimoutiers badminton club, To Vimoutiers (Orne), held its general assembly at the Saint-Exupéry room in the presence of a handful of licensees including two of them who did not renew their license were present.
A pivotal year
Aurélien Lefebvre and Solenne Marguerite played in the 1st team which played in D3. But now, too tight a workforce also linked to the fact that some players do not have the sanitary pass, was right for the team’s commitment to the D3 championship.
“We are going to enter one in the D6, or even D5, championship,” said Michaël Picault, the president. A level that does not allow Aurélien and Solenne to flourish in this sport that they have been practicing at the VBC for 15 years and 11 years respectively. Aurélien and Solenne had continued their sporting commitment to the Vimonastérien club, although they have been living in Rouen for the past few years, where they work. They therefore take a break.
All hope that this new season will proceed normally because the two previous seasons had to be interrupted prematurely in view of the health crisis linked to covid 19. The members of the office are nevertheless going ahead and registering in project mode.
“This is a pivotal year for the return to a social and sporting life. The government’s Pass-sport brings us new licensees ”indicates the president. At the start of this recovery, the club has about thirty licensees (46 in 2020, 56 in 2019) including twenty young people but notes that “only three of them are over 12 years old” indicates Benoit Robin, currently in training to supervise them and animate the training within the badminton school which counts one star.
Projects and meetings
The VBC has positioned itself to host a Youth Tournament Sunday, November 21, 2021 as well as a Youth platform on Saturday March 19, 2022.
“We are continuing the training of club members with the training of two people to ensure the scorer’s table. We also plan to train two referees, in order to allow us to be autonomous but also to remedy overall a lack of referees in the Orne, where there are only four ”.
The VBC will participate in the Telethon Friday, December 3, 2021, by offering an evening tournament at the Michel-Pelchat gymnasium.
Composition of the board. Chairman Michaël Picault; vice-president Mickaël Jeannot, secretary Marie Tessier; assistant secretary Benoit Robin; treasurer Chantal Leprince.
