essential
Defeat of a short Basque Terk (23-21) on the outward journey, the Risclois must at all costs beat Saint-Palais by at least three points difference, this Sunday, May 4 at 3 p.m., to continue the adventure in the French Federal 3 championship.
Players, leaders and coaches of the sports youth Riscloise (JSR) approach with a measured confidence the return match of the 32nd finals of the French Federal 3 championship, this Sunday, May 4 at 3 p.m., against the Saint-Palais team. A defeat certainly, in the first leg in Basque land, but a small defeat which is worth almost a victory, as the final score remains tight, 23-21.

“We have not won, but the enthusiasm is there. We are aware that we have made a good match. We may not have been too technically generous on the effort, which reminds us that we have a big match to do with us, in Eugène-Robert”, explains and tempers the president of the JSR, Damien Dufau.

A feeling of impatience runs through the whole club in these first days of May, supporters in supervision, but all are aware that this remains an open return match with assets on both sides. “Saint-Palais is a valuable team, a sportingly dangerous team and we have to set up the cursor as we know how to do it at home, recalls the president. We must be better in driving the game and improving our conquests.”
A “high risk” match
In any case, it is a “high risk” match for each team, but the JSR will be able to count on its sympathizers, many last Sunday in Basque land. “Players supported by supporters in highlights as in more difficult moments, which has touched the players a lot and it is not foreign to the result brought back from the Basque Country,” notes with a feeling of satisfaction the leader of the JSR. And no doubt, this Sunday will be hot, possibly electric even with thunderstorms announced, in Eugène-Robert.
