It is in Lubersac that the young Juliette Prat comes to recharge her batteries whenever she can. The last time was during the Christmas vacation window. “This is where I grew up, in kindergarten, elementary school, middle school. This is where it all started. I have my family and my friends in Lubersac“. It is after, to follow a course with her studies that Juliette emigrate to Auvergne, in Issoire, until playing with the yellow and blue jersey of ASM Romagnat.
I didn’t think I would get there when I started rugby
The young girl who started at the Entente de l’Orcs, a rugby school bringing together from Lubersac to Saint-Yrieix, even became last year French champion with Asm Romagnat by beating Blagnac. A pride and a great reward: “it’s a lot of emotions. I didn’t think I would get there when I started rugby at 6 years old. The choices and the work paid off. It rewards all the investment and sacrifices, including from my family ”.
CA Brive, his favorite club despite everything
A title that takes absolutely nothing away from his love for CA Brive. His memories of blacks and whites? A meeting where she had taken a picture with Antonie Classen and where their curly hair was “a long tuft of hair“, but also this match where Jean-Baptiste Péjoine against the penalty of a draw in 2016 (Brive-Toulouse). “I lived there my first matches as a supporter“says Juliette Prat. That promises when the derby will be played again. Her attachment is visceral.
I have a particular attachment to this club
“My father played CAB as a youngster. My brother the same. My mom did athletics in Brive. The stadium is the 1st big stadium where I went. These are the first rugby matches that I have seen. This struck me. I have a particular attachment to this club. I am for Brive, even if it earns me a few rooms“she admits, smiling. In the meantime, this Saturday, she should resume competition with ASM against Bobigny in Romagnat.
