Tonight in La Courneuve, France’s top team host La Queue-en-Brie Gladiateurs in Paris.
After five weeks in France’s Elite Championnat Paris’s Flash de la Courneuve (5-0) sit undefeated atop the standings.
The Gladiateurs (1-4) open up the second half of their schedule in a return game. The Flash topped the Gladiateurs 34-12 in La Queue-en-Brie early this season. This is the first season for Gladiateurs in France’s top Elite division, and their sole win came in an stunning upset of the defending French champions, the Saint-Ouen l’Aumone Cougars.
The game tonight in La Courneuve makes the first since the passing of Flash coach Christophe ‘Aldo’ Legutte.
This game has been dedicated to his memory.
