The sum is not negligible but the gesture is above all intended to be of great symbolic force. Represented by its leaders and some players, C’Chartres Métropole HB presented, this Wednesday, June 24, a check for € 1,500 as well as a jersey to the hospitals of Chartres.
During the confinement period, the Starligue club (D1) had organized a solidarity operation towards the nursing staff, on the front facing the Covid-19. “It was our way of thanking all of these valiant people,” said Steeve Baron, president of the CCMHB.
