the essential
The cadets and juniors of Pôle Albret Rugby return to competition this Saturday, January 11. Only the cadets will be resting.
Regional cadets in Miramont-de-Guyenne
A difficult trip awaits the second cadet team of Pôle Albret Rugby which plays in Regional 2. In Miramont-de-Guyenne, where it is always very difficult to win whatever the category. Moreover, during the first meeting at the end of December, the Miramontais won by a score of 72 to 5 against team 2 of the UC2R.
For their part, the regional PAR cadets also started this second part of the season very well with a great 56-21 victory over Villeneuve-sur-Lot. If they want to play the leading roles in this group, they will have to rise to the Miramontese challenge on Saturday (2 p.m.).
National cadets at Stade Bordelais
It’s a shock! Or rather a group final for the young Néracais. After nine matches played, the Stade Bordelais U16s are leading group 13 of the National Championship. But the Albret Entente follows just behind, second with three small points. And, by chance of the calendar, the last match of this mixing phase will pit these two teams against each other…
Saturday’s meeting in Gironde (2:30 p.m.) is therefore a real final for the young rugby players from Albret. If they win without giving the Bordelais a bonus, they will finish first in the group. A great reward for this group full of talents, which includes a large number of Neracais. In the first leg against Stade Bordelais, they won 21-14.
Whatever happens on Saturday, this first place is honorary since the national PAR cadets are already assured of subsequently joining a group which will allow access to the final phase of the French championship. The goal of the season.
Juniors at Cadillac
A hell of a test awaits the PAR juniors on Saturday (3:30 p.m.). Undefeated in the championship at this time, they will face the formidable Cadillac – Langon – La Réole alliance which won in Mimizan during the inaugural day of the Regional 1 championship. But nothing is impossible since the Girondins have already known the taste bitter about the defeat on their lawn.
This meeting will therefore be a very good indicator for the staff and followers of this junior team with great abilities. To finish in the first two places in this group, and compete in the French championship in the spring, you will need to be able to flex your muscles outside. The opportunity is given this Saturday.
