Known in volleyball in France for its high-worked atmosphere, the venerable Lawson-Body room should once again roar and be a full-fledged actress of this return semi-final. As in the previous round where the Pétévine pregnant dilapidated had contributed to overthrow Tourcoing in matches 3 and 4 of the quarterfinals. It should be just as boiling, or even more, this Friday to try to propel the Alterna Stadium Poitevin in the final. “” It’s going to be the biggest atmosphere of the seasonassure Thibaut Thoral. The fourth match against Tourcoing was nothing compared to what he is preparing on Friday. We will have to be able to manage it, there will be crazy warmth. But it will push us for sure. »»
Speaker of the 2019 volleyball Euro and many games from the French team, but also the 2017 Handball Worlds and the 2020 and 2024 Olympic Games, Yoan Crouzillat will once again officiate at the microphone, as was the case during the meeting at Arena Futuroscope against Tours and during the match 4 of the quarterfinals against Tourcoing. The presence of the Toulousain, a long -standing friend of Manager Poitevin, Cédric Enard, should contribute to bringing the temperature to rise from a few additional degrees against Chaumont. It was in this spirit that he had noted the Arena challenge, in December, but also that facing the TLM. “Each time I came with great pleasure”he smiles. The last time, however, it was done very late. More specifically on the night of Saturday, April 12, after the first success of the Poitevins against the Northerners and the elimination of the Spacer’s in Toulouse, of which Yoan Crouzillat is the official speaker, by Chaumont. “It was to be one or two in the morning when Cédric offered it to me”he has fun.
“When everyone gets it, it’s strong”
With the final success we know. And a great discovery also for the Toulousain. “I had never set foot in Lawson-Body before thathe admits. I had heard greatly about his atmosphere. I had been told about this fervor and this deafening noise. Cédric told me that he made me come because he wanted to put all the cards in his possession to win the team and go get the fifth game. »»
A challenge taken brilliantly by Yoan Crouzillat. “I wanted to do everything I could with the public to win this teamhe explains. It was very different from Arena, I had to get used to the public of Lawson and in particular the supporters with the drums which are very good. I relied on them, I accompanied them, they also followed me and in the end there happened. When everyone gets into the room, it’s strong. The noise is phenomenal. »»
Like in the good old days. And to the delight of all. “We feel that this audience loves volleyball. I took a lot of fun. I was very happy for the club but also for Cédric. »» To the point of putting this back this Friday. To prolong the pleasure and once again do everything to go get a result. “Even if I am not part of the club, there is a great human adventure with Cédric but also some people. I’m happy to participate in this. »» Hoping that this lasts as long as possible.
