Chambly: the basketball U09s are champions of Val-d’Oise!

After a magnificent championship which saw the young shoots of ES Chambly Persan only lose once, they find themselves in first place.

They also end up with the best offense and the best defense in the department.

The U09s not having a playoff and having more points than the first in the other group, they are therefore champions.

Bravo to them for all these efforts which led them to become the best team in Val-d’Oise (95). Congratulations also of course to John, the coach (and one of the club presidents) who made this possible.

Congratulations to the 12 champions who participated in the matches: Luca, Abdallah, Jordan, Ousseynou, David, Soan, Madhy, Aladji, Rafael, Eden, Nolan and Aaron.

Half of the team will be in U11 next year while the rest will still be in U09. They will try to reproduce the feat!
