Arin Luzien begins this Saturday, with the reception of Biganos, his eighth season within the regional elite. Since a famous season in 2006 punctuated by no victory and an inevitable descent in DSR of the time, the Beltzak now take advantage and to find the elite. Since then, they demonstrate a great longevity, marked in particular by the regularity in the results and a certain experience now acquired at the very sound of the club.

However, last year, staying up was difficult and long to achieve, particularly due to the large number of relegations to R2, with the consequence of tightening the elite, which went from three groups of fourteen teams to only two this year. « On the other hand, it was very complicated, with the help of Thomas Tapia, who was part of Arin Luzien’s team. The level is higher than the crane and several summers, plus the representative of the Basque sector in the chicken. »

Further travels

A tightening, therefore, can also have different opponents and more distant trips to assume with the Dordogne formations: Boulazac and the reserves of Trélissac and Bergerac. Saint-Paul-lès-Dax, relegated from N3, will be taken very seriously with a reinforced recruitment despite its relegation. But Arlac, who made the season almost perfect in last year’s pool B and who has a simple stick in the access barriers against N3, is also a warning of tough. Langon, promoted from the last day to R2 last year, will have to make its place. All the others are used to starting with Arin Luzien.

« We are regulars but we will try to perpetuate the club at this Level and do better than last year, adds the Arin technician. With the dates available at 8am three points from the podium, this direct comment is tight. In terms of the squad, we have lost a few players and we try to integrate a few more local players each year. » Biganos, direct opponent of the Beltzak this year, now constitutes a first test for Arin.
