For more than a week now, Les Pitchounettes, the women’s team of Stade Niçois, have returned to the rugby fields at Stade des Arboras.
For the senior team of 18+ years, meetings are scheduled every Wednesday and Friday from 8 PM to 10 PM. This season, the team will play in the Fédérale 2 and will find themselves in pool 3 with Montpellier, Saint Mandrier, La Valette, Narbonne, Clermont Ferrand, Ampuis, and Saint Genis de Laval. The first match will be on Sunday, September 30th against Montpellier at home.
The coaching duo, Jeff Depresle and Sophie Mallau, will work this season with new recruits, relying on the core of returning players. The goal is to create an ambitious and competitive group.
Additionally, numerous communication efforts are underway to recruit and strengthen this new team: posters, open days, university collaboration, etc.
The under-15 and under-18 categories will resume on Saturday, September 8th from 10 AM to 12 PM at Stade des Arboras, coached by Frédéric and Lydie VERRUCHI. They will participate in the Regional Championship composed of 4 platforms in association with ROG (Rugby Olympique de Grasse).
These new female sections, under-15 and under-18, will start on Saturday, September 29th at Stade Perdignon in Grasse from 9 AM to 10:30 AM, coached by Loric Mendez and Marion Coroller. Joint training sessions are planned once a month either in Nice or in Grasse.
Les Pitchounettes also invite all girls from 12 years old and up to join our “initiation and discovery of women’s rugby” training session on Saturday, October 6th at Stade des Arboras, beginners or not, for a sporty and convivial moment.
