Finding Home on the Court: Alexis Plomteux Embraces Chalosse
Alexis Plomteux’s arrival this season from Liévin, a town in the carnival-loving region of Pas-de-Calais, has brought a fresh perspective to the team.The player, affectionately nicknamed “A.P.” or “reach the Pantheon” – a nod to the fiercely competitive Coupe des Landes – is eager to experience the thrill of the semi-final with his teammates and the passionate local supporters.
“We certainly know we can rely on our fans for the semi-final,” Plomteux states, “and we’ll see how far that takes us. I’m hoping to embark on a memorable journey with my teammates and the astounding support of the fans.”
More Than Just Basketball: A connection to the Land
While basketball is a driving force, Plomteux’s move to the Southwest was also motivated by a desire to immerse himself in the region’s beauty. Having frequently vacationed along the coast, he was drawn to the charm of Chalosse, a region steeped in rural traditions and a strong agricultural identity.
“Adapting to life here was seamless,” Plomteux explains, “as I grew up on a farm in the Marne. The values of mutual aid, sharing, and conviviality, which are sometimes fading in rural communities, are still deeply cherished in Chalosse.”
A balanced Life: Osteopathy, Basketball, and Camaraderie
Plomteux’s dual role as an osteopath and basketball player fosters a sense of balance and well-being. He brings his professional expertise to the team, sharing his knowledge with his demanding teammates.
“The CLB is more than just a club; it’s a community,” Plomteux emphasizes. “It’s a place where people come together, celebrate, and forge strong bonds. I’m truly enjoying this season because I feel welcomed and valued by the club. I appreciate the Landes style of play: fast-paced, passionate, and electrifying every weekend. There’s a distinct identity in our matches because most of the players are local.”
A Season of Progress and Appreciation
With an outsider’s perspective, Plomteux offers a thoughtful assessment of the Luycontins’ season. “It hasn’t been flawless,” he acknowledges, “but it’s been remarkably triumphant. For a club of CLB’s stature, consistently ranking among the top teams is a testament to their excellent management. Let’s savor each victory and appreciate the journey rather than dwelling on occasional setbacks.”
