Seniors II (excellence B): Coarraze-Nay II 20-Gimont II 18 (defensive bonus for the locals). Deprived of their executives and their strong-tempered players called to the upper level, the Gimontois lacked precision, but also lacked tackles on the first curtain to be able to compete with a very good Béarnaise team supported by quality individuals. Adrien Barbaria, omnipresent, may well multiply in attack and defense, the touch will perform almost flawlessly or even Bonnefous will bring up balls, nothing will do. But the group could have snatched a draw, or even a victory. A setback in no way definitive for a group which will have to bounce back and which also plays at full capacity a role of reservoir for the pennant team.
The ESG team consisted of Bonnefous, Massaglia, Bugeat, Bourdoncle, Saint-Cricq, B. Villamot (o), B. Garrigos, Bertin, Barbaria, Dupuis, Riva, Rinaldi, Labadie, Spitzel (head) and Piernas (Elias-Angéloni, Giavarini, Maurice, J. Perez, Garcia, Ader et Larive.
