Where to play team sports Central

Born of two clubs in 1993, one of Saint-Jean-de-Braye, the other of Fleury-les-Alencon, the Agreement began in National 2 (4 ^th division). In 1997, Orléans Basketball joined the duo. The Agreement gravira the steps of a few years to become a resident of the elite of French Basketball: The Pro A. Few words can describe the team's Pro A course: Two years after its rise, the Agreement is second of the championship before winning the French Cup in 2010. At the same time, following the decline in support of the cities of Fleury-les-Alencon and Saint-Jean-de-Braye, the Agreement no longer has to be and becomes Orléans Loiret Basketball. His ascent attracted a large number of Orléanais to the Sports Palace to support their team and their sport star. In recent years, the emphasis on training, which is essential for the conquest of titles envisaged by Orléans Loiret Basketball, has become the priority for this club approving this essential point: " Who cares about his youth, prepares his future ".

In Chambray, handball is king with the CTHB (Chambray Touraine Hand Ball) women's team, which has been playing in the D1 since 2016, and has competed in the 2021-2022 EHF European League Cup. The club attracts top-level recruits every year, in a team that people come to cheer on at home matches at the Fontaine Blanche gymnasium. And for those tempted by the discipline, the club offers children's and adult leisure training.

There have been many twists and turns in recent years for Tours FC, the Tourangeau club ranked in Ligue 2 in 2018-2019, then downgraded to National 3 and then Regional 1 following successive administrative demotions. Finally, for the 2023-2024 season, the club is still presided over by Jean-Marc Ettori (and has been since 2013), and it's in National 3 that the Ciel et Noir players are once again playing, still supported by loyal fans! The Ligue 1 of the 1980s is a long way off, but let's keep an eye on what's next!

The TVB, a legend? It is in any case the great pride of the Tourangeaux in terms of sport. The club has won prestigious European titles, in addition to its 10 French Cups and 8 French championships! When you enter the Palais des Sports and its Grenon hall, you enter the cocoon of the French and European volleyball elite. Moreover, in 2022 the team is in contention for a new CEV European Cup! In its ranks, we find this year an Olympic medalist volleyball player, Kevin Tillié, and the cream of European players. We can only advise you to go and see a match in the arena of Grenon, guaranteed atmosphere around the floor!

Agility, speed, and strategy: three essential components for volleyball. Whether it's Fulbert High School, the Jean Monnet Regional Youth & Sport Centre, the Jean Cochet Hall or the Charles Péguy gymnasium on rue Francis-Vovelle, volleyball sessions combine effort and conviviality with an inexhaustible team spirit. The training usually takes place in the evening, and some are mixed (for pupils, chicks, s s, minimes and loisirs). One of the two teams of senior citizens is developing at the national level, the other at the departmental level. So, whether you want to compete or just spend a good time on the volleyball field, enter the boat.

Rugby is the school of life. And many people want to practise this sport. That is why, in Chartres, rugby accompanies you throughout life: It is possible to start in the group of under 7, and to evolve over the years, tournament tournaments, defeat defeats, until becoming junior, junior and senior, before joining the recreational rugby team. A whole world dedicated to the ovalie awaits you, so do the test… and let yourself be taken by the irresistible effervescence of this team sport both strategic and physical. Embrace the spirit of rugby.

The adventure of UTBM, Union Tours Basket Métropole, came to fruition in 2020-2021 with a move up to Pro B. In 2021, everyone went their separate ways and Tours Métropole Basket was born! And since then, the TMB has always been at the top of the bill. In 2022-2023, the team was relegated to the NM1 (Nationale Masculine 1), but the Knights are dynamic players and their fans are relentless. Playing out of the Halle Monconseil, the TMB still has plenty of surprises in store for us. In addition, the players are also committed to meeting young people from the department: top!

For football fans, Tours Foot Indoor offers four indoor five-a-side soccer fields with the latest synthetic turf, all at affordable rates, especially if you are flexible about playing times. More dynamic than eleven-a-side soccer, five-a-side soccer puts the cardio to the test. You can book a game with friends, colleagues or a birthday party, but it is also possible to participate in the tournaments organized by the place. And for those who are curious, you can also try Bubble Foot: enclosed in a huge bubble, the players have a lot of fun.

Just at the entrance to the commune is indicated the leisure base. It includes tennis courts, a gym, a football field and above all a large pond. Extending over 4,5 hectares, it is the ideal place for fishermen and renowned for its highly populated waters. For others, the path to the water covered by trees is a nice hiking destination. Some picnic tables are also installed on the water side.

On the Fontaine-Simon lake, water sliding is available to all. In the heart of the Perche region, give yourself a fun and natural break with this guaranteed thrilling activity! The water ski lift allows you to discover the joys of water skiing, but also wakeboarding, wakeskating or kneeboarding, while being pulled by a rope attached to a cable. Supervised by qualified instructors, this fun activity can be practiced from 10 years old. Note that the cable can pull up to 8 people at the same time. Laughter guaranteed!
