PAtrick Labaisse, the president of the USO Rugby, wanted to take stock of the press, to announce that “the club will enter an era of transformation and ambition, the two mixed, with a strong local anchoring. Because it is estimated that we have all the skills on Orthez ”.
The President explains that the training work will continue, but that beyond, we must be able to offer a future in the club to young people. This involves strengthening the sports committee. This strengthening naturally comes from Gastounets (club formerly), who realized that they were not sufficiently present to accompany the staff and the management team. They therefore come to support, their experience.
Develop talents
“The objective is to go from a team policy to a club policy, but above all to regain pleasure at all levels: players, coaches, staff, managers, supporters. With the pleasure found, the ambition to go up will be reached! “Explains Guy Romain. As for Thomas Laporte, president of Gastounet, he confirms: “It is the pleasure that creates the dynamics!” »»
The rise in Federal 3 is not the only objective. It is a question of developing talents in the club, by training, but also of being able to keep them in the club. To do this, it is Joel Poeymiroo and Timothée Lafon who will train the 1 ° Senior and Tom Lubet and Hervé Bergoignan team that will take care of the reserve team. On the other hand, a senior girl team is created as part of the USO_MB agreement. The club has a physical trainer with Jean-Baptiste Peyras-Loustalet. Amber Rose remains the physiotherapist of the club.
However, the club does not start from scratch if we look at the results of the juniors who finished in the 1/2 final and the 1/4 final cadets. Sponsors and spectators are still there: 140 people at the last post -match meal: “There is always a craze of the Orthéziens for their club! “Concludes the president.
