While the resumption is scheduled for July 21, the GBDH already knows what awaits it in the championship. The National Handball League published this Thursday the complete calendar for the 2024-2025 Proligue season, the first day of which will take place on Friday September 6, Saturday 7 and Sunday September 8.
Christophe Viennet’s men will start the championship away, in Angers. Fifteenth in the last financial year and relegated sportingly, the Angevins therefore seem to be heading towards a repechage in the French second division. The Bisontins will close their season at home on May 16, against Frontignan. An uncertain time because of its financial problems, the Hérault club also leaves in Proligue.

A Proligue still with 15 teams
Like this season following the general withdrawal of Villeurbanne, the Proligue will be played with 15 teams after the refusals of Dreux-Vernouillet and Annecy to move up to the higher level. The GBDH will therefore be exempt on the weekends of October 4, 5, 6 (5th day) and April 4, 5, 6 (24th day).
Having narrowly missed the play-offs this year (7th), GBDH will have to avoid experiencing the same slump in October-November, when it will play a series of matches against the top 6 teams who have remained in Proligue (Cherbourg, Pontault, Frontignan and Sélestat).
Finally this season will mark the return of the Burgo-Comtois derby against Dijon, with a first leg match in Côte d’Or during the 13th day, at the beginning of December, and a return at the beginning of March at the Besançon sports center (J21).
