The Rhone Handball Bagnols Gard is organizing the Gard handball festival this weekend at the Saint-Exupéry stadium in Bagnols-sur-Cèze. Each year, the Gard handball committee proposes to a club to organize the event. This is the first time that the HBGR has offered its services. This Saturday, May 25, 300 young U9 handball players invaded the stadium, usually reserved for rugby players. 22 Gard clubs were represented through 56 teams. Each of them played around ten matches refereed by young people on small fields. The Gard committee, which helped the HBGR in the technical part of the organization, offered a t-shirt for each participant. Around fifty volunteers from Bagnoles were present. Sunday May 26, the Gard handball festival continues, this time with the U11 category.
