historic double for La Tamponnaise

This is called total domination. For girls, as for boys, La Tamponnaise Basket-Ball won the two regional finals of the Coupe de France trophy in which it was entered this Sunday, November 24. A double never seen before in the history of Reunion basketball.

It started perfectly with the women, who made short work of the Aiglons d'Orient on the floor of the municipal sports complex. 20 points ahead at the end of the first quarter, and a gap which continues to widen as the minutes pass.

Final score: 96 to 37. But the Blues barely took the time to savor that they were already planning on their future Indian Ocean play-off match against the Fuz'Ellipse de Kavani, champions of Mayotte.

For men, same punishment. The Tamponnais defeated the Picks of La Possession with a score of 111 to 72, to sign with their female colleagues a historic double.
