Here it is, it’s over. The first season of the GAB in NF2 ends with a short defeat against a beautiful team from Saumur who does not play in the same category as the Garonnaises. Five weekly collective training sessions, individual work with the players, when Vanessa Ronc brings together hers twice a week. “Tonight, we didn’t play anything, we just wanted to have fun for the last at home. Finally, we do not fight on an equal, with the teams we receive and despite everything this group always wants to give everything. Tonight, we did not go far. »»

The fault of a slightly sluggish start for the locals who are slow to enter the game. Saumur is a young, physical team, which prints a high rhythm, which gives them 13 lengths in advance. But indeed, this Garonnaise team has a lot of heart and it is impossible for him to let go of the match. With patience and self-denial, the Gab girls grab their delay by Misson who pressed under the circle, then well helped by the Vista de Condoris which succeeded in the last second of the possession to put the Gab back to a small point of Saumur (55-56).

There are two minutes left to play and the blue loses the ball, but the Gab fails to enjoy it and bows little to the best 2^e of the four hens of N2F. “There remains a real goal,” concludes coach Vanessa Ronc. We all want to get the regional cup in Pomarez. “See you this Thursday, May 8 (2 p.m.), in Villenave-d’Ornon, against CA Brive Corrèze in the quarterfinals.
