It's a top-of-the-table match that will be played this Tuesday, December 10 at 8 p.m. at Halle Vacheresse. The Chorale de Roanne, 2nd, faces ADA Blois, 6th for the 4th day of Pro B, a match late. In the squad of the Loir-et-Cher club there is Timothé Vergiat. At 26 years old, the silver medalist at the Paris Olympic Games this summer with the French 3×3 Basketball team arrives with orange ball star status.
Playmaker Timothé Vergiat confides that he is enjoying his post-Olympic Games well. “I get recognized a lot. Every time I meet someone, we talk about it right away. It changed the way people saw me. And then it’s always a pleasure to tell about this extraordinary adventure. And I know a lot of people followed me. I was extremely surprised at how many people watched, even people who knew nothing about basketball.“
“My whole family supports the Choir”
Originally from Saint-Symphorien-de-Lay, where he scored his first baskets, Timothé Vergiat then evolved with the Choir jersey on his back in the youth categories, before joining INSEP, the National Institute of Sport, Expertise and Performance.e. The leader of Blois still has very strong ties to Roannais. “Three-quarters of the people in the room I saw when I was younger. I played in this club too. So being able to play in front of my friends and in front of my family is always good. It's a very nice basketball hall, we have a good atmosphere. And then my whole family supports the Choir, my friends too. So playing against it is a bit special.” Kick-off at 8 p.m. at Halle Vacheresse.
