Maintenance is very close, in Toulon. Or not far. Indeed, if there is success this Saturday March 26 in the evening (7:30 p.m.) with the reserve team of Toulon / Saint-Cyr (14th out of 14, 19 pts), dark red lantern of pool 4 with zero victory, then the Blanzat Sport Montluçon (7th, 37 pts) will, so to speak, be maintained in National 1 women.

The context
“We had targeted four important games to win: La Garde (12th), Narbonne (13th), Nice B (8th) and Toulon”, lists Bourbonnais coach Franck Arbonville. “Here we are three out of four, more than one”. The easiest??

“It’s a very young formation, which plays fast, runs in all directions and makes a lot of mistakes”, continues the coach. “These are kids from the training center who are certainly there to work for the duration, but the fact of chaining defeats, by force, is complicated in the heads”.
The preparation
In short, at all cooked for the BSM? “If we play at our level all along, it should happen naturally,” analyzes Franck Arbonville. “But if we get into the rhythm of the opponent and we relax defensively, it will be immediately more difficult”.
Especially since it will be necessary to stuff a journey of more than 600 km to go to the Var tomorrow. “Fortunately, as our B team match has been postponed, we will leave with a group of fourteen players”, informs the technician. “It’s important to have a big bench for this type of movement”.
