The results of the weekend 

M14 :
This Saturday the Minimes were playing the first day of phase 2 of the Super Challenge de France on the Bachelard field against the St Jean de Bournay/Culin and Montpellier cartel.
The "Rouge & Bleu" won their first game against St Jean de Bournay 15-0.
For the match against Montpellier, the Grenoble players have increased in power by offering a varied, fair and efficient game and win largely on the score of 34 to 07.

M15 :
Trip to Nimes for the youngsters from Isère. A very complicated 1st half-time for the 2 teams, no try on the counter, half-time score : 3-3.
Grenoble passes the upper gear for the 2nd period and score 33 points while preventing their opponents from scoring, final score 3-36.

M16 :
Like the Gaudermen, the Alamercery met the Nîmes team on the Gardoise grounds, and like the younger ones, the first half was difficult. In spite of a small possession of ball in the 1st part of the game, the Grenoble players recovered in the 2nd half and offered a beautiful spectacle to the present supporters, final score 8-34. Thanks to this victory, the Alamercery validate their 1st place.

M18 :
The young Grenoble youngsters moved to Perpignan for this 1st game of 2020. Unfortunately, the Isèrois couldn't face the locals and lost heavily 34-7 and pass 6th in the ranking of Group 2. 

Espoirs :
The U21s moved to the Stade Français for this 11th day of the championship. It was the "Red & Blue" who opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a try from Tom Sposito. Grenoble conceded 3 penalties to the Parisians (18', 28' and 45'), which will be costly on the final score. The Stade Français team scores in the 1st part of the 2nd half (52') and takes the lead on the counter. Pierre Strippoli flattens at the 72' and Thibaut Trotta transforms and reduces the gap to 2 points. Unfortunately, the young isérois won't be able to catch up and they are just defeated by the Parisians, final score 14-12.

Amazones Federal 1 :
The Amazons sign a short victory for this 1st derby of the year on the Coxs field.
The two teams go blow for blow, but the Martinéroises who dominated the 1st half take the upper hand, score at halftime: 14-10. 
As soon as the break comes back, the Amazons score and pass in front of a small point, the Coxs follow closely and take back the lead of the game. The 2nd half is strangely similar to the 1st period : both teams don't give up and follow each other closely, but contrary to the 1st half, the Amazons dominate. The last 5 minutes kept the public in suspense: the Coxs, ball in hand, pounded 5 meters from the goal, the "Red & Blue" thanks to a will and a steel defense lead the locals to the fault, the end of the game is whistled on a penalty in favor of the Amazons, final score 19-22.
