The years go by and are not alike at ASC Sainte-Anne-d’Auray (ASCSA, Morbihan). At the beginning of the year, the flagship team reached D1 with a mobilized and highly motivated workforce to ensure maintenance. But we have accumulated serious injuries and are back in D2 for next season,”
explained Alexis Courayer, the president of the football club, during the general meeting on Saturday, June 29, 2024. As a result, the B team is relegated to D3, even though it had enough points to stay in D2. The club is positive. Not everything is to be thrown away, quite the contrary. We can count on a great squad and a great collective of players at the start of the school year. We have chosen to put all the chances on our side with experienced recruits.
Emmanuel Fravalo, the coach, will be able to count on Pierre Jacopin, trained at the Saint-Annois club and who left for Kériolets de Pluvigner for ten years, but also on Nicolas Moy, who played at the Vannes Olympique club (Voc) and who is arriving from the Crach club.
Artificial intelligence to analyze matches
To go even further, the club has just acquired a camera with artificial intelligence. It will allow us to film matches and then analyse them. We are choosing new technology to progress,” said the president.
With 250 licensees, including 150 young people, ASCSA wishes to improve the quality of their training. We are currently forming a partnership with a leading club in the department. This will allow us to hold shared sessions.
Training at the Saint-Annois club was recognized in December 2023 by the award of the youth label by the French Football Federation.
A futsal section
At the start of the school year, the club launched its first senior futsal section. She will be competing from September
notes Alexis Courayer. On the training side, the Motten field will be rehabilitated by the fall, with re-turfing, four lighting systems and changing rooms. On the festive side, the club has found its cruising speed with the Pentecost tournament which was a great success, as was the shuffleboard tournament. The Color Race, organized by a group of parents, was also a great success. The profits from this event help equip young players.
The resumption of training for seniors is set for July 29 and for the start of the school year in September for the youngest.
