The sound of squeaking shoes, that of a ball bouncing on a parquet floor… These sounds, so characteristic, so emblematic, of a basketball match, will continue to resonate in the gymnasiums of Levallois. Barely a few days after the mayor of Boulogne proclaimed the end of the Metropolitans 92 ― who played their matches at the Palais des Sports Marcel-Cerdan in Levallois ―, the basketball team of the Levallois Sporting Club won, on Thursday, its ticket for Nationale 1. The 3rd French level. A wink of fate some would say…
After finishing in 2nd place in their group in Nationale 2, the Blue Steelers ― nickname of the team ― validated their rise by winning, Thursday, in Meilhan-sur-Garonne during the quarter-final second leg of the playoffs of the division. In a week, they will compete in the final four in Auch which will award the title of French No. 2 champion. But the essentials have already been acquired.
