There followed very quickly the announcement of the return to the racket of N’Diass Samb, after a white season for professional reasons. He will replace Camil Czajkowski, who has retired from sport. François Abadie, solid interior of team 2, will make his comeback in the group, in order to compensate for any injury / failure of the Tursan racket.
Ride youth
Quite naturally, the young people launched last year, Mathys Lalanne, Corentin Labat and Baptiste Saubignac, confirm their claim to take the lead this year. The “newcomers” of the season will therefore be Cylian Lalanne, 18, who, at the end of his five years of training in Dacquoise and freshly crowned with the title of French U18 champion, returns to his “birth club” and Dorian Bats, another hope of Landes basketball from Avenir Basket Chalosse. These two will have the heavy burden of making people forget the talent of Pasquet-Gayon.
The new vintage ETB will be marketed “terroir”, with no less than six players trained at the club and “fresh” since there will be five between 18 and 22 years old.
Four relegated
The coaches Cedric Destrac and Thomas Darricau will always have the responsibility of making this mayonnaise take, so that the ETB can appear in this very regionalized hen (12 Aquitaine out of 14) and very homogeneous, where it will be necessary to sweat a lot to avoid the wagon of four relegated at the end of the season. The ETB coach does not hide it: “You will have to be intractable at home to hope for something but it will be war every Saturday because these Lot-et-Garonne and Landes rooms will be cauldrons! »
From this weekend, dive into the deep end with the trip to Layrac, a newly promoted Lot-et-Garonne team, which will still have the momentum of its rise in its legs and will want to demonstrate that their basketball land remains a fortress. This will already be a real test for the ETB.
