Paris Chatillon

[Pie tries]

Can anyone tell me how they are doing…and how much RL there is around Paris?

[JonM]

Chatillon are operating a joint team with Paris Charenton in Federale Poule 4, which also includes Marseille, two teams from the Vaucluse area (around Avignon), another Paris team (Corbeil) and Vaulx-en-Velin from Lyon.

Wow, sounds like a lot of travel for amateur teams!  Is the Nanterre (Paris) team still active?  Les Hussards I believe was their nickname.

Good to know there’s at least one other team in Lyon.

There was a whole league in the Rhone-Alpes, and 4-5 teams in Lyon, only a few years ago. Ile-du-France had its own league with a similar number of teams in Paris until recently, too.

Thanks. Do you know if most of those teams are still going?

No - the remaining teams are mostly competing in Federale Poule 4 - which contains teams which formerly played in the Rhones-Alpes and Ile-du-France leagues. There were teams like Roanne (former winners of both Lord Derby Cup and Elite 1) in the Rhones-Alpes area who've disappeared at senior level in the last few years.
