Amateur Rugby. Beaune promoted on green carpet in National 2, after the refusal of three clubs

The misfortune of some is the happiness of others. After the refusal of three clubs (Saint-Sulpice-sur-Lèze, Castelsarrasin) to go up in National 2 for lack of means, the FFR proposed to CS Beaune (Côte-d’Or) to access 4^e national level and the Burgundian leaders accepted. the CSB will therefore evolve into Nationale 2 next season, as the club announced on its page Facebook.

“A whole club is now well equipped to play in the big leagues”

“On file, the French Rugby Federation chose to give a Federal 1 club the chance to access the National 2 after Pamiers’ desire to refuse its promotion to the National 2. And it was the CSB that was restrained! », Indicate the Blue and White leaders. “The work carried out for 15 years by the President André Goichotand the professionalization of the club are rewarded and the decisions carefully considered on both sides, “explains the formation managed by the New Zealander Hugh Chalmers, ex-flanker of UBB and Vannes. “It’s a whole club that is now well equipped to play in the big leagues. »

Indeed, the CSB meets many points of requirement of the specifications of the National:

• the club’s budget meets the criteria
• a 2-star labeled rugby school with 170 members
• from teams under 16 and under 19 to XV
• a team at XV in Federal Hopes 1
• a training center labeled in March 2022 by the FFR
• a training center in the course of studies, 100% of the players of team 1 are under contract FFR and/or Apprentice Educators
• More than 22 players are under professional or multi-activity contract (Students, apprentices, civic contract, etc.)
• Supervision is of quality, graduate (DESJEPS, DEJEPS, BPJEPS) from Baby rugby to Seniors and the criteria for the requirement of diplomas by level are 100% respected, two referees are at the club plus an arbitration school: 3 at least will be present in 2022.

A new stadium will be built

CS Beaune adds that a new stadium is “running”, that “of recruits are underway to strengthen the current team” and that a “genuine bodybuilding room was born in September 2021 allowing quality physical preparation with the presence of a fitness trainer full time “.

It now remains for the CSB to continue in National 2, while the Burgundians only finished 10^th of Pool 2 of Federal 1 with only 38 points on the clock, very far behind the leader Hyères Carqueiranne La Crau and his 100 units.
