Much more than a volunteer, Marco was for many years a pillar of the club on whom the management of Hennebont-Lochrist Handball (HLHB) could rely. On the occasion of a gala evening, in the presence of a loyal audience, many of Marco's former playmates, and in front of the club's many partners, Maxime Le Pallec, co-president, paid tribute to him on Saturday November 30, 2024.
“Thank you Mark”
The Blue Jackets, gathered in the center of the field, Maxime Le Pallec launched into a highly intense speech, which moved the approximately 500 people present. A great emotion was felt in the cauldron. A long session of applause followed by the reading of this poignant text, with the Kop in the background, each of the members raising at arm's length a poster with Marco's face and a “Thank you Marc”.
“We have to win this match for Marco”
With a heavy heart and moist eyes, the match was able to begin, with the firm intention, for captain Yohann Moniez, of leading his team to victory. “We need it and we have to win this game for Marco.” A high-flying match. A high-quality handball exhibition kept the audience in excitement. A Kop in great form during the 60 minutes of play. Minutes which will have played with the nerves of this great audience, who stood up several times, in the stands, to support the blues. A few minutes from the end, the announcer raised his voice and occasionally, the temperature of the cauldron, leading the audience into a huge ola.
This time, the meeting ended in tears of joy. The Blues won against the great Ivry team. For Marco.
