As part of the program Clubs Christophe Revault proposed by the Toulouse Football Club (TFC) in order to promote the ecosystem of amateur clubs, the young players of Tarbes Pyrénées Football were able to experience an exceptional Sunday. Entertainment, entry with the players and a Ligue 1 match, everything was there to give young footballers strong emotions.
The meeting was at 12:30 p.m. at the Maurice-Trélut stadium this Sunday, and needless to say, there was not a young footballer from the TPF missing. No less than 170 people including educators, parents and members of the Tarbes club were present.
For this major trip, three buses were mobilized, each placed under the responsibility of two supervisors, responsible for ensuring both safety and a friendly atmosphere. Mission successful, between laughter and songs, the children’s enthusiasm was contagious in many ways.
When we got off the bus, it was a race to bring together the different categories who would be involved in the 13e day of Ligue 1, pitting Toulouse against Auxerre, neck and neck in the general classification.
Young people hand in hand with TFC professionals
The U10/U11 who will make their debut alongside the professional players were taken to wear the colors of Téfécé. The U16s were also supported to take on the role of ball collector and, finally, the women and the U13s had the opportunity to welcome the players when they got off the bus. The other categories tested themselves with well-orchestrated activities such as ball tennis, blind football or even a timed course with graduation.
Half an hour before kick-off, everyone was in place to watch the club’s youngsters, eyes sparkling, alongside their idols. Taking advantage of the atmosphere of the Brice Taton turn, the children sang in chorus the excited songs of the Toulouse supporters.
“An unforgettable memory” with the added bonus of the TFC victory
For Matheo, who returned to the stands after kick-off: “It was fabulous to return with players for the first time in our lives. It’s a memory that will stay with me forever. “.
To complete this day, Toulouse won easily with two goals from King and Sierro, which will delight Matheo, Naim and Leio, for whom Toulouse is “one of the best teams in the world”.
It is necessary to underline the perfectly mastered organization on the part of the TPF of President Carlos Amorim, whose educators played a major role. For Antoine, this outing “is a safe bet for children. I see the smallest of the group, it’s incredible how amazed he is. It creates additional cohesion for the children, that’s for sure.”
On the way back, the young footballers wanted to make this timeless moment a little longer, by singing and sharing for a few more minutes, the memories of an exceptional day.
The program Clubs Christophe Revault had already offered the U13s, earlier in the season, the opportunity to experience an immersive day at the Stadium.
