First of all, we are very happy to be back on the lawn.
Before talking about sports, Sébastien Desmazeau would like to recall the pleasure he and his group have in finding the field, after weeks of deprivation linked to Covid-19.
This Monday, July 27, the trainer of the Stade Laval reserve (National 3), who donned a second cap this summer, that of Olivier Frapolli’s assistant in N1, is leading the resumption of the team’s training. of N3 and U19. The players had to provide proof that they had been detected, before entering the Gandonnières.
“Humility must be their driving force”
Despite a few moves, the group remains fairly stable, as do the club’s ambitions. The ambition is to perpetuate the team in the last national level, with a majority of young people from Laval training.
, summarizes Sébastien Desmazeau. It is also to serve as a springboard, for some, whom I hope as many as possible, for integration into the N1 team. Our role is also to be the end of the training course.
A role that is particularly close to the heart of the former Poitiers coach, who saw Nicolas Pépé pass there. We must stay alert, and tell ourselves that this team is a step. They have every interest in showing that they can be even better than last year. And that’s where I wait for them
, he warns. The ultimate goal is not to be a good National 3 player. When you are part of a training center, it is to gain a place a little higher. It requires patience, and a lot of work. Humility must be their driving force.
Cissé, Ait Moujane and Etonde, examples to follow
Sébastien Desmazeau himself will have his work cut out for him this year. The priority is to be with the coach of team 1
, manager of training at the Stadium. But I will be coaching each National 3 match. It’s something that is being organized, with Mathieu Escolar and Sébastien Chapuis. Of course, that will require a lot of energy, availability. But to create a link, to give direct feedback to Olivier Frapolli when I collect players not summoned in N1, it will be very interesting.
And for young people, the examples of Wessou Cissé, Yazid Ait Moujane and Luderic Etonde, who signed a one-year contract this year after playing in N3 last year, show that it is only grab the handle of the door leading to the National.
