PFor this last match of this third block, Tyrosse receives a promoted Gujan-Mestras, who obtained his ticket for the upper tier after a very good 2023-2024 season and a quarter-final of Fédérale 2, this Sunday (3:15 p.m. ). And the Girondins started their adventure in Fédérale 1 in a good way, with a third place after 8 days, a nice performance for a promoted player.
UST, for its part, occupies second place after its narrow victory in the derby against Peyrehorade (10-12), with three points ahead of Gujan-Mestras and a match in hand. The Tyrosses will have to be wary of this complete and very playful team, which has six victories and two defeats, against the leader Bagnères (14-39) and at Oloron (27-19). Progressing in mastery and discipline, the Tyrosses, who remain on three successes in a row, are on a good dynamic. The amalgamation between players from the club and recruits is bearing fruit.
“Positive” beginnings

Passing through Saint-Junien, Villeurbanne then Limoges, the solid 2nd line (1.98 m, 108 kg), “passionate about sport, cooking, music and travel” discovered in the Landes “the region and a new living environment that suits me.
“I am very happy with my tenure and the results,” continues Tom Astegiano. Even though we were scared several times, the start of the season remains very positive and the group is satisfied. We always try to erase the flaws and improve from match to match. »And this Sunday (3:15 p.m.), “we will have to be careful despite the fact that he is a promoted player. Gujan-Mestras is a team that plays a lot of ball and scores tries. It will be an interesting match. »And that the Tyrosses hope to be victorious, to prepare in good conditions for the trip to Nafarroa. A place that Tom Astegiano can’t wait to get to know…
