Where to play team sports Midi-Toulousain

They have been talking about it for some time and they have done it! The two major players in this project marked the TFC and kept Toulouse ties. Fabien Barthès, who is no longer present, and Elie Baup, a recent club coach and former goalkeeper, has just created this academy of purpose guards whose first internships during the summer of 2008 took place in Luchon. They are open to girls and boys between the ages of 11 and 17. Future large doormen will work in particular the following: control of support, travel, air exits, stops arrested… In addition to the one week internships, possibility of annualise training over a period of 4 to 6 weeks. With two sponsors of this size, no one doubts that this academy will soon become a reference in the training of goal keepers!

TFC, or Toulouse Football Club, is a soccer club based in Toulouse. Founded in 1970, the club currently plays in Ligue 2, the second division of French soccer.

TO XIII is a venerable institution which, in 2017, blew out its 80 candles! Based alongside Stade Toulousain in the Stade Ernest Wallon, this XIII rugby club was the city's fourth-largest team when it was founded. It contested its first French Cup final in 1939. Since then, the club has won numerous honors, and today competes in the^2nd division of the English Championship. The club has its own training center, as well as a women's team, a junior team and a wheelchair rugby team.

Founded in 1907, Stade Toulousain is one of France's most legendary and successful rugby clubs. With its impressive track record (21 times French Champion, 5 times European Champion), the club, now managed by Didier Lacroix, has seen some of France's most legendary players pass through its ranks, and today boasts some of the best French and international players, including the 2021 World Player of the Year, Antoine Dupont. To see Stade Toulousain play in a unique atmosphere, come to the Ernest Wallon stadium for Top 14 and European Cup matches!

The club to the northwest of Toulouse was born almost 90 years ago. Now in Fédérale 1, Blagnac Rugby has a fine record of achievement, having won the French Fédérale 2 Championship in 2001 and 2010, the French 7-a-side Championship in 2015, and most recently the French Espoirs National Championship in 2021. Matches are held at the Stade Ernest Argelès, on the banks of the Garonne and not far from the airport. You can watch Team 1 take on neighboring Albi, Dax and Tarbes. The club also has a Pôle Jeune and a women's team competing in the Élite 1 league.

The Stade de Sapiac is home to the players and supporters of Union Sportive Montalbanaise. In the professional world of Pro D2 for several years, the club reached this level by beating Massy in the Fédérale 1 final in 2014, thus becoming one of the few clubs champion in the top 3 national divisions. The "Vert et Noir" bring together thousands of fans at every match, and the fan zone knows how to set the place alight! Go Sapiac!

Since 2011, Albi has hosted a new recreation base: that of Cantepau. Free access and open all year round, it has many sporting facilities that will make the athletes in the corner happy! Between the fields of bicross, mountain biking, tennis, football or beach volleyball, the space is a health course. Far from the sports venues, let us admit that the physical exercise in this natural setting along the Tarn is very nice. A playground and picnic area are also available.
