Pascal Piriou ready for a second term at the head of Breton tennis

A declared candidate for his own re-election since the beginning of September, Pascal Piriou will be elected this Saturday in Pontivy for a second term at the head of the Brittany league. No other list has come or managed to come up against the one he put together and whose name (United in Brittany for our federation) indicates his attachment to the outgoing president Gilles Moretton for the federal elections of December 14 and 15 .

On this subject, the Concarnois believes that he has no opponent on what he did during his first mandate, but on his position taken in favor of Moretton. “It’s not a choice that all five of us decided on a whim (with the four departmental presidents), but it was the best for us. » On his moral assessment, he will explain that when he arrived at the league, he focused on “calming the social climate” because “we work better in a good atmosphere and all in the same direction. »

“Breton tennis is doing well despite two warnings”

The boom in licensees whose curve (“we are going to pass 50,000 this year”) is in the process of returning to the heights of 1992 (almost 55,000 compared to 42,000 before Covid and 38,000 in 2021) is only lighting two turn signals

“Breton tennis is doing well, despite two big warnings. On the one hand, the lack of teachers, who are not paid enough and whose pace of work is modeled on that of the restaurant industry, is creating a vocational crisis. On the other hand, the deficiency or aging of infrastructure with a third of the 320 Breton clubs refusing people. »

During this AGM, the construction of a new training and training center will also be discussed.
