COUVERCELLE CHAMPIONNATS DE FRANCE 2020 TALENCE, ACTE II Pour la deuxième année consécutive, Talence accueillera les finales messieurs et dames des championnats de France par équipes Pro A 2020, qui se dérouleront pour la première fois le même jour, soit le samedi 7 décembre 2019. Chez les dames, comme l’an passé, le TC Paris sera opposé à l’ASPTT Metz, tandis que chez les messieurs, le TC Quimperlé affrontera Villa Primrose. Ces deux affiches s’annoncent particulièrement ouvertes. Chez les dames, le TC Paris, tenant du titre, tentera de décrocher un septième titre dans cette compétition (après 1988, 1989, 1990, 2015, 2017 et 2019). Le club de la capitale, emmené par Pauline Parmentier et Tatjana Maria, a assuré sa qualification pour la finale en s’imposant à domicile face au TC Saint-Dié lors de la dernière journée. L'ASPTT Metz, vainqueur du premier titre de son histoire il y a 2 ans (2018), aura à cœur de prendre sa revanche sur le TC Paris qui l'avait battu en finale, l'an passé. Le club de la ligue du Grand-Est, qui compte dans ses rangs notamment la Belge Ysaline Bonaventure et la Russe Ekaterina Alexandrova, affiche le plein de confiance après avoir réalisé un sans-faute en phase de poules avec 4 victoires en 4 matchs.

I guess the summer of 2019-20 will always be remembered as the season that ended early due to Covid- 19. Looking back now at March it all happened so quickly and it was with a sense of great disappointment that we had to cancel all our end of year prizegivings, miss out on the last two weekends of cricket and lock up the Indoor Training Centre for all of April. Now we can only hope that everything has settled down enough to allow us to enjoy a full season in 2020-21 and that all our members are healthy and safe. However, it was still another great year for Suburbs.
