After a major change in staff, the senior team recently managed to chain great performances. A good omen for maintenance, right?
With the deletion of the reserve and the departure of seven executives of the front page at the beginning of the year, we based ourselves on a team of friends, and especially Graulhet, to try to play the maintenance in D2. We cannot train because 90 % of the team is on a business trip, so we especially play with our values and our solidarity. On the first leg, we missed several times because it is not easy to have all the players at the same time, so there have been a lot of workforce changes. On the other hand, on the return phase, it is very positive: seven games played for four victories, two draws and one defeat. But the maintenance is not yet assured, we will have to take a few points in the last four games.
When we talk about Graulhet Benfica, we cannot forget the young people who still have great performances this season in the Tarn Cup. Do you have a secret recipe?
The football school is what we are most proud of. All animation categories are doing pretty well and our U15 and U17 has a great season by finishing 1st in their pool. Unfortunately, the two categories lost the Tarn Cup in the quarterfinals. But this is only a postponement for next year, because we know that there is quality in these workforce. Despite everything, we are proud of it, like the rest of the football school.
What can we announce for the next season of the club?
I can’t go too much. I just hope that the football school will continue to grow, that our youth teams at 11 will go even further in their competitions. Seniors should be more competitive than this year, with the returns of certain players as well as the young U17/U19 which will come to expand the senior group, which could allow a team two to resurface.
