The domestic section before the final in 2024 Sports and Friendship Park Narbonne this Sunday, May 26, where four finals are scheduled on the main court. And the rest next Sunday, June 2. But the highlight of this season is May 26, with the finalElite 1 between Carcassonne XIII (who finished first in the regular stage) i Albi RL XIII !
This is the game of the season! Between Carcassonne (12 titles, last in 2022 and finalist last year) and Albi, whose last of 5 titles dates from… 1977. The two teams dominated the regular season, finishing first for Carcassonne (53 points) ahead of Albi (50 points), well ahead of the defending champions XIII Limoux (40 points).
In the semi-finals as well, two clubs dominated the debates34 to 18 in favor of Albi against Limoux and 44-4 for Carcassonne against Pia. A long distance duel between the two departments of OccitaniaAude (whose clubs won the last three titles) and Tarn.
The Albigensians attack the fortress of Carcassonne
The Albigens players will undoubtedly have a desire in their hearts to return to success after 47 years of poverty. Five shields fill the Tarn Club Bench (1938, 1956, 1958, 1962, 1977). On Sunday, Albi will play the seventh final in its history and the fourth against Carcassonne. Apart from the Albigensian club, an entire department is represented for the final stages of this 2023-2024 edition. And what caused real enthusiasm in the episcopal city and the surrounding area, where we are ready to support the flags in 5 categories.
It is the fruit of a “virtuous circle organized between local entities that unites thirteen strongholds and promotes the practice of rugby among the youngest in an exemplary way. Long-term work of passionate leaders and volunteers that will be rewarded in the end.” we comment on FFR XIII.
The Albigensians are therefore preparing to attack the fortress of Carcassonne! For those who wish to attend: https://www.ffr13.fr/billetterie/
