Nantes Doulon Futsal was relegated from Division 2 Futsal this season. After three years at this level, the eastern Nantais club will return to the regional level. But he cannot rely on his young people, as demonstrated by the presence of his U15 and U18 in the finals of the Pays de la Loire championships this Sunday in Saint-Jean-de-Beugné (Vendée). “We reached the limit with the players we had in the flag teamunderlines David le Boette, the technical manager, who stops coaching the flag team. We have to rely on our young people. There has been a lot of work done for several years by the club’s educators. This can be seen in the results of our teams. We have very good young people in Nantes North! »
“Do even more for development”
The proof with the selection of Enzo Gehan with the French U23 team for the university world championship or that of Mathéo Le Pessot with the French U19 team. “It’s a shame that the France futsal center in Nantes is postponedassures the ex-international (56 selections). It would have been good for our young people because several futsal clubs in the Nantes region are working well. » And in particular the players from its young teams who are in the final of the Regional Cups this Saturday in Vendée. “Some only play futsal but most play in 11-a-side football clubs like FC Nantes, JSC Bellevue or USSA Vertouspecifies David le Boette. Today, even more should be done for the development of the discipline. Because it’s interesting for player training. But some clubs don’t understand this. »
In the senior final, two clubs from Loire-Atlantique face each other. Two clubs which were play-offs for accession to D2 futsal last season. In vain. If the Nantaise Futsal Association is still qualified this year, this is not the case for Castelbriantais. A great opposition to close the end of the regional season.
