There is no more. Authors of a remarkable season, marked by 17 victories and 2 defeats, the Champholois, leaders of R2, are two points away from joining the regional elite.
A potentially historic rise for the family club created in 2006 by Odile Herche, who then passed the torch of the presidency to her daughter, seven years later: “Initially, the club only had a younger team, which brought together a group of friends in which I played, as well as baby-basketball, to open up development prospects at the club”, confides Marie Herche, 30 years old.
Decisive match at Olivet
Since then, the entity has been built gradually to reach 120 licensees with the showcase of the senior team 1 (the FJC has three). A flag team which will play its season on Sunday at Olivet (6th). A formality will say the most optimistic since in the first leg, in their sports hall, the Red and Blacks had largely won (105-51).
Goal best defense
Almost a habit for the men of Julien Ballator, who beat their record for points scored this season (56-111) on Sunday at Saint-Pierre-des-Corps. “Given the current context, I prefer not to declare victory too quickly. The recipe for our success, in addition to the significant reinforcements (Damien Pistre, Gautier Pillerault and Antoine Chesneau, who passed through Barjouville) can be summed up in one word: competitors. In training, my players can take the lead on a touch but after, off the field, it’s over! », Notes the coach of the FJC, who has set a final challenge for his men: to end the season with the best defense in the group, currently held by the Lucé neighbor, 2nd in the standings.
