For some, among the most seasoned and assiduous, the UNSS also represents the first experiences of regional, national or even international competitions. This is the case for the twenty or so athletes from Le Verger college, in auray (Morbihan)supervised by the PE teacher, Nicolas Jugan, who reports an exceptional year, unprecedented for the college, both in terms of level, results and motivation
