Historic weekend for Stade Niรงois, which will play its first round of 16 in the senior division, while the reserves will have the chance to bring back the clubโs first shield in its history to the Bay of Angels!
For the first team, after a weekโs break following their promotion to federal 2, the first team will return to the finals path today against Aubagne, for its first round of 16 since the clubโs creation.
The first objective has been reached, but the group does not want to stop there and plans to have a great adventure together. Defeated twice in the pool phase, the players are determined to reverse the trend against a strong opponent. The answer will come this Sunday starting at 3 PM at the Lรฉo Lagrange Stadium in Draguignan.
As for the Reserves, this Sunday, they will face their last challenge of the season in the final of the French Excellence B championship against Voiron. The match will be played at the Stadium of Chaumiane in Sisteron. Fully prepared for this match, the group will have the opportunity to be the first Stade Niรงois team to bring a title back to the Bay of Angels. The players can count on the support of numerous fans from Nice, as two full buses will make the trip.
After several years of famine and fanciful projects, it seems that rugby has regained its vibrancy in the capital of the French Riviera.
