Challenge Auvergne Rhône-Alpes team competition: round 1

Our teams’ first outing of the year this weekend in Salaise-sur-Sanne, for the first round of the Challenge Auvergne Rhône-Alpes team competition.

Despite a difficult start (only 12th after qualifications…), our team of Samuel, Killian and Laurent rose to the occasion in the afternoon matches:

Round of 16 won 5–1 against Thonon-les-Bains
Quarter-final won 6–2 against Ste Julie
Semi-final won in a shoot-off against Seynod
Final unfortunately lost in a shoot-off against Annecy
All in all, a great 2nd place

and a fantastic weekend together, helped by the weather, which spared us both rain and wind (just a few drops and a light breeze in the afternoon).

Next outing next weekend for 2 of our teams: the adult DRE and the youth DRE. Here’s hoping for the same results 😉
