No more tickets are on sale, the match will be sold out.
“It’s going to be a table tennis party”
The president of Roanne LNTT Marcel Livet: “OI have the assurance that the Lebrun brothers will be there. We always have a risk of injury, an accident, etc., but there is a very good dialogue between the Lebrun family and our club. We are in the process of completing the organization which is very large because today we have 133 volunteers to ensure everything. There will be a large number of spectators who have never seen a table tennis match. The hope is that they continue to come and see the Roanne LNTT at home in our small Hélène Boucher room. It's going to be a celebration of table tennis, of the club, but not only because it's a celebration of sports in Roanne, quite simply.“
The Hélène Boucher room where the Roanne LNTT club usually plays welcomes between 300 to 500 supporters per match. Before this clash against the Alliance Nîmes Montpellier which will also be followed on the YouTube channel of the French Table Tennis Federation, the Loire team will welcome Jura Morez TT on Friday December 13.
