The Bouillarguaises even took the lead ten minutes from the end (27-26, 57th). The Varoises finally respected the hierarchy, winning 32-30.

A successful first

For this first edition in the form of a test, success was at the rendezvous of this Occitanie Women's Tournament, both in terms of the development of the values ​​of women's sport and the quality of the matches, on the Agora court.

We will make sure that it is an unmissable event in the Mediterranean, with financial support that we did not have this year.”
