The creation of a large administrative region will have at least brought something new to sport by pitting teams against each other who would never have found themselves on the road to Fuxéens. This Sunday, November 24, 2024, the Ariégeois will head to Lauragais, Aude more precisely, to face the Piège-Lauraguais-Malepère team.
The Piège-Lauragais-Malepère appellation, born on January 1, 2013, results from the merger of several communities of communes of Garnaguès and the community of communes of Piège and Lauraguais, as well as the integration of Saint-Amans, from Montreal and Villeneuve-lès-Montréal.
This is the administrative description, but beyond that lie good, rough, playful rugby clubs that attract supporters even far from their bases.
If we look back at the history of the clubs, the USF met the Montreal club several years ago. The match was played in this city on a slightly off-center field. A meeting which left few lasting memories.
Today, this club (with its changed name) is in the USF qualifying group and, after 7 days, is in 5th place with a score of 17 points. The previous day, he suffered a setback at Puylaurens, one of the leaders of the competition, 25-8, which is not a guarantee of success.
Establishing yourself in the former Languedoc is not a barge ride on the Canal du Midi. Every scrum is a lock.
