La StorieTouraine is a summary of current events in Indre-et-Loire. Here is the edition of this Sunday …
—————-
Ministerial visit …
At one time it was announced that Prime Minister Jean Castex was visiting the premises of the Food Bank of Touraine in order to launch the mobile grocery store for students. The tenant of Matignon was unable to come due to the health crisis but a minister nevertheless moved to Saint-Pierre-des-Corps this weekend: Marc Fesneau, in charge of relations with the Parliament and also a native of Loir-et-Cher where he was elected deputy in 2017 (we are also talking about him to lead the LREM list in the regional elections in June).
The member of the government therefore discovered Le P’tit Kdi, which distributes food and hygiene products for € 4 to underprivileged students during his visit to university sites. 800 people benefited from it in 2020, already 600 in 2021. The operation is being carried out in collaboration with the Red Cross.
Brief disturbing disappearance …
At the end of the afternoon this Saturday, the gendarmerie of Indre-et-Loire launched a call for witnesses to find a 33-year-old man who disappeared in Sorigny. He was found safe and sound that evening.
Raw point …
The Loire seems to have reached its maximum height this Sunday morning with 4m22 in Tours. The government site Vigicrues now forecasts a drop in the water level of between 20 and 45cm by Monday afternoon at the Pont Mirabeau. The decline of the Cher has already started with a maximum reached during the night at 3.55m and already 2cm lost early in the morning. The river could return to 3m-3m20 by Monday afternoon.
Take the opportunity to go see our slideshow of the Loire in flood on 37 degrees.
Foot…
Second match in two weeks for Tours FC this Sunday with a meeting at 1:30 p.m. against Romorantin as part of the 7e round of the Coupe de France. Dominators narrowly against a team of Regional 2 last week in the Loiret, the Ciel et Noir now face a club N2, a level above theirs. If they want to continue the matches they have no choice and must win in Loir-et-Cher… In this case they will go to the next round and will be on the field once more on the weekend of February 13-14 . Otherwise it would be necessary to wait for a resumption of the N3 championship, always more uncertain because of the health crisis.
Handball…
The Coupe de France is also for the Chambraisiennes in handball… This Saturday, the CTHB faced Besançon and won with a comfortable gap of 6 goals at the Fontaine Blanche: 33-27. Suddenly the Tourangelles will play in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, they who are also guaranteed to finish in the top 8 of the championship and therefore to play the play-offs at the end of the season.
Volley…
Still heckled the TVB this Saturday in Grenon but Hubert Henno’s men did not concede the 3e consecutive defeat they feared in the league. Victory 3 sets to 1 against Poitiers in the derby of Ligue A: 4 hotly contested rounds with 2 or 3 points difference each time.
Hockey…
And two! 2e consecutive victory of the Remparts de Tours in the new formula of the D1 championship with its two regional pools. Winners of Cholet during the last weekend of January, the Touraine hockey players this time dominated Caen in Normandy 4 goals to 3.
