BASE-BALL LA ROCHELLE LES BOUCANIERS

Thanks to an exemplary season, Le Stade Rochelais raised the colors of La Rochelle high. But a few steps from the Marcel Deflandre stadium is a different sport: Baseball. If France ranks in the world's top 30, it is far from countries like the United States, Japan or Cuba. The club, however, attracts many followers every year. After honoring its thirtieth season, the club continues to grow, welcoming nearly 200 players this year. And it's not ready to end! The club joins other structures and even envisages a new field for… 2023. After being Vice-Champions of France D 2 in 2014 (they fail only two points) the Boucaniers continue to highlight this sport born in Spain. The principle is simple: two teams of 9 players alternate alternately in attack and defense. To learn more, direction the plain of the Colette Besson games! To note, it is also possible to discover soft ball, a variant of baseball that is played on smaller terrain and with a larger ball.
