A beautiful lesson in passion and commitment!

Moreover, the supporters of Volley Club Hyères - Pierrefeu - La Londe came in great numbers on April 12 to celebrate the title of vice-champion of France, won in the Coupe de France a week earlier! Indeed, the club has experienced an exceptional and historic season thanks to the unwavering support of fans and partners.

EXCEPTIONAL RUN

Thus, April 12 will remain engraved in memories. During the final day of the championship, the men's team, coached with passion and determination by Michaël Lapinta, wrote a beautiful chapter of its history by playing in the final of the federal Coupe de France against Rennes, the undisputed leader of Élite and a serious candidate for promotion to Ligue B. "We experienced another great evening against the Aix-en-Provence team, beaten 3 sets to zero. Our team is moving up to Élite, it is a superb result. The club's state of mind is excellent. The season is ending. We must build the future. The foundations are solid. We must keep this momentum. Congratulations again to the directors and volunteers. And thank you to our public who are always there to galvanize our players," enthused François de Canson, mayor of La Londe-les-Maures and the team's primary supporter. This exceptional final rewarded an already historic season, marked by an incredible promotion to Élite achieved after a clear 3-0 victory against Monaco, a team previously undefeated at home. An achievement that illustrates the club's philosophy, focused on team spirit, sporting excellence, and exemplary solidarity.

COMMITMENT AND SURPASSING ONESELF

"This success is also yours! Your support and commitment throughout the season have been invaluable," Steve Peironet enthuses when addressing the supporters. On their remarkable run in the Coupe de France, the Varois created surprises on several occasions by successively eliminating Avignon, Amiens, and then recently Conflans/Andrésy/Jouy, all members of Élite. These victories are the result of a rare group cohesion, driven by the unfailing commitment of each player and the visionary spirit of their coach Michaël Lapinta: "Something drives us. The match was played on desire and everything we built this year. Our style is based on combat, we have offensive assets that allow us to pull off this kind of match against teams from a higher division," he stresses. "We built this adventure to experience moments like this: moments where an entire region gathers behind the same passion, sport. We will need all our supporters... but also our partners, those who make our club live day to day," adds Steve Peironet simply. This philosophy of commitment and surpassing oneself echoed throughout the season, despite the physical challenges faced by some key players. This team, led by players such as Bryan Rafidison or Baptiste Enfoux, proved to be solid and resilient, always supported by a passionate public who came in large numbers to encourage their heroes. Beyond the sporting results, the club embodies the values of solidarity and inclusion. The sitting volleyball discovery evening, organized successfully every year, shows this commitment to bringing people together, overcoming barriers, and offering everyone, able-bodied or with a disability, the chance to thrive through sport.
