Oscars Midol – Marta and Pacome rewarded at the Oscars

It was during a warm evening that rugby received the Midi Olympique Oscars. The Portuguese Rodrigo Marta and the product of the Columérine training Ugo Pacome were celebrated, as well as the entire club at La Colombe.

Far from the current mediocre results, Colomiers rugby was able to experience a little enchanted parenthesis, this Tuesday evening at Mas Tolosa (Plaisance-du-Touch). The entire club has been praised for its unique functioning and its ability to enhance individuality. Thus, it was natural to honor Rodrigo Marta, the X factor par excellence of the Haut-Garonne squad. The Portuguese winger or center, almost recovered from his broken foot, appeared all smiles when receiving the numerous gifts from the partners of the Midi Olympique Oscars. “He’s a very nice boy who integrated quickly into the squadgreeted Julien Sarraute, head coach. And above all, he performed well, which is what we ask for first. » That’s the least we can say… Beyond his twenty-four tries scored with the Wolves, he will have scored seven in a year spent in Haute-Garonne. “It’s a marker”replied Julien Sarraute without hesitation when citing the primary quality of the principal concerned.

“Over the past ten years, 42 players have left the training center and become professionals”

And the Wolf wasn’t the only one to be rewarded. Ugo Pacome, only 19 years old and already 11 matches (including eight as a starter) for three tries, was in the spotlight. This pure product of the Columérine team distinguished itself by initiatives which made it possible to unblock certain matches, such as the one against , then leader (33-29). “The quality that I really like, and one of the only ones in which he surpassed me, is speedbellowed Rodrigo Marta. When I was clocked at 35 km/h, he did 35.1… It’s annoying! »

Obviously since it is Colomiers, pride of place has been given to training, a pillar if ever there was one of this club in the suburbs. “Over the past ten years, 42 players have left the training center and become professionals. Despite a training center with 16 players, the smallest in , we have developed a ratio of four players released per yearnoted Philippe Filiatre, rugby director acting as the link between the association and the SASP. It is a trademark of the Colomiers club. » And the case of Ugo Pacome, licensed at La Colombe since he was 5 years old, is not isolated, as demonstrated by Jérémy Béchu, Paolo Parpagiola and Arthur Diaz, to name but a few…

Alain Carré, president of the professional structure, had the final word, encouraging the 400 people present (the Mas Tolosa was full) to lend their support this Thursday for the reception in Aix-en-Provence: “Having evenings like this, in delicate times like we are going through today, it feels good […] We are hosting Provence rugby this Thursday, and I invite you to come out in large numbers to support the team. These guys deserve it. »
