“We’re going to have to get organized. It’s something that’s not simple, before validating anything, I want to of course consult the local elected officials and especially the partners. We took over the club there It was in poor condition a short time ago. We almost got it back on its feet, we shouldn’t do anything.”, says CAS president Adrien Doursat. While waiting for him to present his plan, the Sarladais rugby players will play their quarter-finaland try to win the title of champion of Fédérale 2.
