Ce week-end, the season curtain rises… and what actresses to open the show! Gentlemen first, the Division 1 women take the stage. Four months of competition, ten grueling weekends, and at the end of the road: the Holy Grail.
But before that, the calendar promises to be hot: the French Challenge at the end of May, two Super League weekends, a European Cup in August for the Comanches… and then the sprint finish with the playoffs at the beginning of September, up to an explosive final on the first two weekends of October. That is to say: no room for error.
👉 Three matchups, six teams, and already some must-see clashes this Sunday 22!
⚔️ Grenoble vs Saint-Raphaël: explosive start
Right from the start, the Grizzlies hit hard with the home game against the formidable Comanches from Saint-Raphaël. The favorites are known, announced, expected… and maybe even a little too much?
Grenoble, at home, could well play the trouble-makers. Without flashy recruitment, certainly, but with the energy of the first match and the support of the public. What if the Comanches started in diesel mode?
Prediction: draw of victories
Nice vs Pessac: the test of fire for the promoted teams
In Nice, it’s the moment of truth. After a well-deserved promotion last season, the Nice girls dive directly into the big bath facing Pessac, a solid mid-table team.
The desire on one side, the experience on the other… and maybe a little warm-up time for the visitors? Beware of the trap match!
Prediction: a victory each
Évry vs Colombes: clash of styles and sharp claws
It may be THE most intriguing duel of the day. The Wild Cats from Colombes, armed with massive recruitment, arrive with great ambitions. But in front of them, the Pharaonnes from Évry defend their territory with authority.
Forteresse impregnable or a declared power grab? The claws are out, and it promises sparks!
🎯 Prediction: a win each
💥 The tone is set: the season has started, and already, the rivalries are flaring. Who will strike hard from the start? Who will already have to chase the pace? The answer on the field… where it all begins.
