Women's rugby - On Saturday evening, Saint-Jean will be blue and white!

A great atmosphere is expected on Saturday evening in Saint-Jean, with Entente Iles du Nord – Bruc des Abymes on the bill for the first day of the women's championship in X. On paper, it is one of the most exciting matches in Guadeloupean rugby. Buoyed by two victories over Bruc last year, Entente Iles du Nord, made up of the Rascasses de Saint Barth and the Archigirls de Saint Martin, defied the odds to reach the championship final. This is proof of the progress made by the team coached by Fabien Maurel. "The team is still improving and our good season last year has inspired others, so we have more players in the team this year. For Saturday, we had to make choices for the match sheet and leave some girls in the stands. It's hard, but there's competition and the players are motivated to earn their places!" emphasizes Fabien Maurel. The coach reflects on his team's level this season: "Some players have been preselected for the Guadeloupe team and others took part in the Ribeaut tournament last month, but for the others, who haven't played much, this match is eagerly awaited." And to set the tone for this match, the rugby club is organizing a feria in the club's colors of blue and white, with the famous triangular scarves and musical entertainment by Bandas, in the stands and around the stadium. In addition to a large refreshment bar, entertainment is planned, as evidenced by the presence of the Youngz group, who will spice up the early evening with a little carnival atmosphere. So join in with the Saint Jean stadium, dress in blue and white to support the island's women's rugby team and celebrate rugby with them on Saturday evening from 7 p.m.
