What do footballers do during the break? While some rest and go on vacation, others indulge in other sports such as tennis. This is particularly the case of Jean Damsin, Pilou Henry and Léo Fanara, who are all part of the same team at New Tennis Huy.
And success is there since the Hutois are in the final of the interseries in Men’s 7.It’s really a team of friends. At first, it was just for fun, we didn’t think we’d go that far. But once we’re in it, we go all out.” confirms Pilou Henry, who shares the captaincy with Charles-Henri Heyen.
But there is also a certain talent in this team, like Jean Damsin, who passed through the AFT center, alongside Zizou Bergs, when he was younger. “Our rankings do not reflect our level. We will all move up several rankings, recognizes Pilou Henry. But one thing is for sure, it does us good. I think that this year, the break is very long in terms of football. This allows us to stay in shape.“
So, without batting an eyelid, the Hutois came out of the group stage and passed the rounds in the final phase one after the other.The only time we scared each other was in Seraing, in the round of 16. We won the first three singles before losing the next three. As a result, we lined up a very solid pair for the first doubles, while keeping Jean Damsin for the second. This time, we played it a little more tactically. In the quarterfinals, against Visé, we didn’t even play the doubles and this weekend, we only played one. “
The task undoubtedly promises to be more difficult on Sunday since the Mosans will challenge the D team of TC Marmotte. “It will be more spicy, that’s for sureconfirms the co-captain. Also, Jean Damsin is not here. If he was here, I would have said that we were favourites. But now, it’s going to be very complicated. Afterwards, everything depends on Saturday night. If we’re in good shape on Sunday, it’ll be fine (laughs). But I think that, in any case, we’ll have to play the doubles. Neither team will make the difference with the singles alone. “
Whether the match ends in a victory or a defeat for the Hutois, count on them to still celebrate in the company of their supporters who are likely to be relatively numerous this Sunday!
