The next premises of the French-speaking judo federation.
Cost of the project: 705,000 euros (without the seventh batch), including 378,000 payable by Infrasports, whose support must be saluted, as does the tenacity of a federation which has some 11,000 affiliates. As before another crisis, that of Covid-19…
