Excluded from the play-offs for promotion to Pro2, the team from Nice dives into this consolation competition with a name that is, oh so prestigious, but now confined to the background.
They will face Lavaur, who last season won the honorary title of Fédérale 1 champion.
The team from Nice ended their championship with a prestigious victory against Bourgoin, who qualified for the promotion phase.
After a successful season and despite administrative setbacks (10 points of penalization), the team from Nice is determined to finish the job well by going as far as possible in this knockout challenge.
It is therefore crucial to start well this afternoon on the field of the team from Tarn.
The return match will be played on Sunday, June 12, at Arboras.
