Section paloise aims to repeat historic Top 14 playoff qualification

Following a historic season that saw Section paloise qualify for the Top 14 playoffs for the first time, the club is preparing to manage its new status as a serious contender. Despite the frustration of a lost playoff match last season, the team aims to repeat their qualification performance.

Captain Beka Gorgadze noted that the team must handle increased pressure from media, supporters, and themselves. He emphasized the importance of collective confidence and warned against potential distractions, such as the arrival of a new training center.

Coach Sébastien Piqueronies stated that the club's primary ambition is to qualify again, acknowledging the difficulty of the task. The team's growing status is further evidenced by an increasing number of players being called up for international duty and several contract extensions for young international players.
