At home, Salbris concludes its Nationale 2 season undefeated. Facing the Oullins reserve, the Solognots were uncompromising with an 8-0 victory. As on the outward journey, Salbris left no hope to the members of the Lyon suburbs, already assured of remaining in N2.
Playoffs on May 4 and 5 in Clermont-Ferrand
Only the two women’s singles matches were played in three sets. Alizée Simon in 1 knew how to adjust the sights and regularity in the exchanges to win. Lucie Couvert in 2 knew how to get out of a trap match. In mixed with Maxime Michel, she brings the 8th point synonymous with an offensive bonus.
Now the Salbrisiens, like their captain Philippe Michel and coach Maxime Michel, have their eyes fixed on preparing for the playoffs on May 4 and 5 in Clermont-Ferrand. Faced with the 5 other teams in the running, Salbris will have to take one of the two tickets to access Nationale 1 next season.
Blois wins the return derby
In the Nationale 3 derby, the Blésois won down to the wire against the Salbrisian reserve. The Pillon room in Salbris saw two different issues. On the one hand, Salbris 2, at the top of the National 3 championship, needs a victory to compete in the playoffs for accession to N2. On the other hand, Blois needs a draw to maintain itself.
In the end, the close matches kept coming. The four matches in three rounds were all won by Blois. The men’s doubles and mixed 2 won respectively 21-18 and 21-19 in the last set by Blois changed the match.
In the first leg, the Salbrisian reserve won 5-3 in Blois. On the return, the Blésois took their revenge and won 5-3. This defeat combined with the victory of the Clermontois places the Salbrisiens second and sends Clermont-Ferrand to the playoffs.
For Blois, it’s relief and the result of a great season with the support acquired on the last day. With Salbris 2, the two Loir-et-Chériens teams will once again be in Nationale 3. For Salbris team 1, it will be Nationale 2 at least or Nationale 1.
