A great success for the hike organized by AS Traînou Basket. On Sunday, the 425 participants in the hike organized by AS Traînou Basket, as part of its 50 e anniversary, set off on the surrounding paths.
Three courses of 5, 10 and 15 kilometers were proposed. Smiling welcome, flawless signage, welcome refreshment point, all in a sporty and family atmosphere!
Cyril Blanchard, president of AS Traînou Basket, all the organizers and volunteers were very happy with the success of this first edition. The funds collected will be donated to the Can Donovan CER association, an Orleans association which aims to improve the hospitalization conditions of children with cancer.
On the calendar of the year
Other events are on the program of the trianienne association this year: the annual basketball tournament on the weekend of Pentecost (June 4 and 5); participation in the festivities on the evening of July 13; anniversary day of the association on November 11, open to licensees and former licensees of Traînou; and the Christmas of Basketball which will have a particular tone because of the 50 e birthday. It also remains to plan a lottery, scheduled for February, and canceled due to sanitary conditions.
A good year in perspective for Traînou Basket, which currently has 130 members, aged 4 to 55. Many members in the youth category remain loyal to their club by moving to the senior category over the years. The majority of athletes then become volunteers and contribute to maintaining a good atmosphere and the mutual support so dear to the team.
Cyril Blanchard, president of AS Traînou Basket, is himself a former player who became a coach and then a referee.
