Fans of futsal, the girls will try to do even better in this discipline. They have an appointment from May 30 to June 3 in Périgueux for the final explanation. These beautiful courses mark a renewal.

“Use the inside of the foot,” he told his 24 students before a slalom exercise joined by three players from the Girondins de Bordeaux, midfielder Julie Dufour, 20, who has already been called up to the Bleues, as well as two attackers, the Portuguese international Mélissa Gomès and Melissa Herrera, member of the Costa Rica selection. This training like no other took place on the sports grounds of the Mercure hotel in Bordeaux-Lac, which, along with that of the airport, sponsors the Bordeaux club’s women’s D1 team. Both have the same owner, Marc Gaulin.

Under the eyes of Vincent Maurin, deputy mayor of the Bordeaux Maritime district, some were able to confront these professional footballers in small three-on-three matches, without contact. Others interviewed them. The exchange will be the subject of a presentation in French class, then of a publication in “Les Vaillants”, the internal newspaper. This is the first time that this college, which had as a pupil Eva Sumo, a former player for the Girondins de Bordeaux today in Le Havre, has participated in this kind of operation.
