At the end of the first two preparation matches at Vendéspace, which resulted in two victories against Finland, the French team staff decided to part ways with Pauline Astier, Marie Pardon and Ana Tadic, which is not a surprise given that they did not take part in these two tests.
It is likely that Jean-Aimé Toupane already has the list of 12 elected officials in his head because it must be submitted on July 5.
After a few days of rest, the 15 remaining Bleues (12 starters, 3 substitutes in case of injuries) will meet again this Saturday, July 6 to begin a new training camp in Lyon. The next preparation match will be against Serbia, on Friday, July 12 at 6:30 p.m. at the LDLC Arena.
