It is a 100% Chalonnaise specificity and the club intends to give another dimension to its wheelchair basketball team.
On the occasion of the back-to-school press briefing for the wheelchair basketball team, Christine Juillot – President of the Elan Chalon Association and Sandra Cléaux – Coach of the Elan Chalon wheelchair basketball team were keen to mark the occasion , a few days before the start of the French championship. 4th in the French Championship last year while Elan Chalon was newly promoted to the highest national level of handibasket, the Chalonnais club made its mark and does not intend to stop there.
On the questions of the structuring of the team, Christine Juillot insisted on “the changes in mentality underway even if we always have to fight” with a certain number of actions which will be carried out with the first team of the Elan Chalon in particular. The official presentation of the players to partners and subscribers marked this return to sport, with a real integration of the armchair team, with the public and partners. A great way to raise the values of inclusion to the highest level.
“Elan Chalon is the only elite basketball club that has a wheelchair basketball team playing at the highest national level, it is up to us to make it a strong marker, and to claim all the work done” insist in chorus Christine Juillot and Sandra Cléaux. With the club’s partners, schools and the public, numerous actions will punctuate the season, with the idea also of offering the Coliseum public one or more opening matches in place of the hopefuls, before the team professional.
