It’s almost the end of the season, the sun is back, and good habits don’t change: sport continues to occupy your weekends. Le Parisien offers a selection of issues and details the events not to be missed in Île-de-France. Overview.
The two matches not to be missed: PSG to stay ahead, the climb for Tremblay?
HANDBALL. In Starligue, PSG, which was joined at the top of the standings by Montpellier (which has one more game) has the opportunity to return to the top of the standings alone. To do this, he will have to take at least one point from Coubertin this Sunday against Chartres (14th), who is fighting with Ivry (13th) and Istres (15th) for maintenance. This Saturday, the Parisians could even be helped by Créteil (12th and still not saved either) who welcome Nantes, 3rd at a length of the leading duo. There will then remain three days to designate the winner. Unless there is an accident, everything will be decided on Friday June 2 at Coubertin with a PSG – Nantes which will feel the great evenings of Europe.
It’s just as hot in the Proligue, but this Friday evening everyone will be fixed on the first team to move up to the Elite. It’s the last day of the regular season and the first will get his sesame. It is played between Saran, Tremblay, and Dijon. The Tremblaisiens have no choice but to beat Nancy at home, hoping that Saran leaves some feathers in Valence (13th). The two clubs indeed share the lead in the standings but the Loiretans have a better goal average for… a goal (+ 5 against + 4). Pontault will finish 4th (or 5th) the regular season and will find Frontignan in the play-off next week (Wednesday and Saturday). Massy has been saved for a long time.
The weekend poster: Boulogne-Levallois attacks his quarter
BASKET. The end of the regular season of Betclic Elite is over, now it’s time for the play-offs. Runner-up to Monaco, which is playing its Euroleague semi-final against Olympiakos this Friday, Boulogne-Levallois begins its quarter-final first leg at home against Cholet on Sunday. Victor Wembanyama and his teammates are logically favorites against the 7th in the standings. This quarter-final is a best-of-three match, with the second leg taking place next Tuesday.
The young French prodigy, who will join the San Antonio Spurs without any suspense at the end of the season after the Texas club hit the jackpot in the NBA lottery, will of course be keen to bring the title to the Mets. 92 before his departure for the American dream. The two previous meetings against Cholet were extremely close, with a victory for each team.
The competition to follow: the Challenge de France in Sénart
BASE-BALL. The Templiers de Sénart club hosts the Challenge de France 2023 until Sunday. This competition, which brings together the eight best teams in France (including the Templars, the Cougars of Montigny-les-Cormeilles, and the Lions of Savigny s/Orge), will allow the winner to qualify for the European Cup. The semi-finals are scheduled for this Saturday (1 p.m. and 7 p.m.), the final will take place the next day (2 p.m.).

The supreme challenge: the Samurai challenge in Herblay

The place to take it easy: the Melun swimming pool

The Laure Manaudou Olympic pool will bring together 650 swimmers from 205 clubs from all over France for the a long weekend. The challenge is the accession to the French Elite Championships for the first 4 of each event after the finals.
The discovery of the weekend: street workout in Montgeron
UNCLASSIFIABLE. The Atlas Corporation sports association is organizing a very special competition this weekend in Montgeron (Essonne): “The WAR II”. Street workout, literally “street training”, is a sporting hobby combining gymnastics, bodybuilding, as well as parkour. It mixes figures of strength, flexibility, balance and agility, and is practiced mainly outdoors.
In less than two years, five friends passionate about street workout have managed to find a place among the best organizations organizing competitions in France. They have for the moment to their credit and a French championship co-organized with the French federation of street workout and calisthenics (FNSWC). The latest event, “Atlas Contest 2022″ brought together more than 150 athletes, with the best from all over France and even Europe.
To move to the rhythm: a roller party in Paris
ROLLER. At the heart of the Maison des Métallos (11th arr.), a festive and playful experience awaits lovers of thrills and dance. Inspired by the festive atmosphere of fairgrounds of the 90s, the “roller party” evening begins this Saturday at 5 p.m. with a snack offered to all participants, before giving way to roller dancing (from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m.). Note that children must be accompanied by an adult and that you can bring your own skates.
