Baptiste Peytavi en bleu et blanc
At 23 years old, Baptiste Peytavi, the solid Catalan second row (1.96 m, 112 kg), has just signed with Ceret Sportif Vallespir, his training club.
A pure product of Ceret, Peytavi played for Stadoceste Tarbais, but the Pyrenean club, competing in National 1, has just forfeited their games in general.
Millas
Les rouge et noir relegues
A quick rise and then a fall… After a strong start in Fédérale 3, the Millas team has recently faced a tough end to their season.
Promoted this season, Laurent Bosch’s men saw their hopes of staying in the league disappear last Sunday at home against their Ille-et-Vilaine neighbors (15-24) and will return to Regional 1 next season.
Ponteilla
Nicolas Bruzy remet ça
The former player of RC Toulon, USAP, Rumilly, and Ceret, Nicolas Bruzy, 51 years old and former coach of Thuir and Prades, joined the green and white club four years ago as a coach.
Recently settled with his wife and children in the village, he has just agreed with the board to continue leading the team in 2026-2027.

Les écoles s’illustrent
