We take stock with the coaches on the first block of the championship one week before the resumption of the Pre-National championship.
JIL Colayrac Basket
The Colayracais had a mixed start to the season with two victories and two defeats. Aurore Le Manach is counting on her team to tackle three new matches before a break at the end of November with, in perspective, the reception of Val d'Albret Basket for its first derby. The objective is to get the season back on the right foot with a victory at home, before two consecutive trips to Adour Dax (2) and AB Chalosse, opponents within their reach. However, be careful of complicated matches in the Landes halls. For Aurore Le Manach, coach of the JIL, “it's a very complicated start to the championship. We narrowly missed the first matches. As usual, I can't have a season without injury and, this time, that touches Catarino and Gomez, two key players of the team, so it's very complicated We won our first match with more than thirty points and, as a result, the team regains confidence. In a week, we. let's resume against the VAB It's a highly anticipated derby We are several teams tied on points, so the team that wins will gain momentum in this championship. my players injured for this derby.”
Entente Sportive Le Bruilhois
Aubiac is having a very difficult start to the championship with three defeats, including two at home, and a victory in its first derby against VAB. The loss of their emblematic captain due to a serious injury, which will keep him away from the field until the end of the season, has not helped matters. With two receptions (Amou and Luy Adour) and one trip (Elan Béarnais) for this new block, it will be necessary to maximize the victories at home and why not create a surprise in Béarn. “To say that we are within our sporting expectations would be to lie. We must adjust and offer a different style of play to compensate for the absences. To maintain ourselves, we will need around ten victories. We plan from week to week, but the group continues to live well”, explains coach Maxime Cassant.
Val d'Albret Basketball
The VAB finds itself in the same situation as the Colayracais, with two victories and two defeats at the end of this first block. The resumption of the championship will begin with a trip for its second derby of the season, this time to Colayrac, before welcoming the Béarnais of Jeanne d'Arc d'Oloron, then finishing with a trip to the Landes, to Saint-Cricq.
