Finances in Good Shape: Basket Landes Club Sees Budget Increase

The finances of the Landes club are good with a small increase compared to the previous season when the budget was 2.8 million euros.

“I sent the forecasts this Monday at 11:57 p.m. for a deadline of midnight, explains Marie-Laure Lafargue. We will wait for the return. Our landing hypothesis includes the Cup final and a championship half. This is the case, we will be a little above the 2.950 million budget. Our rate of development is 100,000 euros per year, to put it simply. Some are in difficulty on a budgetary level, we are. safe from all that. The lights are green, we are on the same page with the management commission. They are guarantors of stability and hope for the future.

Basket Landes will enhance its playoffs by playing in the Coupe de France final against Bourges on Saturday April 27. The same poster as in 2022. The Landaises are double holders of the trophy.

“It’s the fruit of a lot of work. We were in the three finalists for the prize for the best organizing club in the Euroleague. Even though we weren’t in the quarter-finals.

I hope that we will finally succeed. to say that Julie Barennes deserves better than nothing when in three years, she has three titles…”

The Espace Mitterrand is very often full and leaves people disappointed. Here is the president’s comment on the subject:

“It’s frustrating, because we would like, for certain events like these final phases, to have a room with 4,000 seats. It would be full every time. The subject will have to be put on the table one day or another if the club perseveres at this level of results and fidelity of supporters. There is no urgency, but it is a real subject, the global capacitylike that of the partner reception. Today, we are stuck on certain aspects of development (…) What we know today is that the good format of a basketball hall tends to be around 3,500, 4,000 seats. Which would not seem an uninteresting gauge for us. If we want to keep our own specifications, we would also need certain criteria: a very popular spirit, close to the field.”

For the quarter-final playoff match, Basket Landes will face an ASVEL team deprived of Julie Allemand, Marine Fauthoux, Juste Jocyte and Gabby Williams absent until the end of the season, and also of Laura Quevedo, Sandrine Gruda, Marine Johannes and Alice Kunek. Not less…
