For basketball there the reference point has always been the Palais des Sports Jean-Michel Geoffroy, where the Espoirs side draws its identity from a club older than any rival in the country: the parish association behind it was founded in January 1880 by Abbé Bizouard.
The U21 group, nicknamed La Jeanne after Joan of Arc, built its reputation in the 1990s, when it won the Championnat de France Espoirs five times between 1994 and 1999. The run stopped there — no further national Espoirs title has followed since 1999.
What sets the pathway apart is how directly it has fed the first team.
