A new “terrific“, that the mayor (Les Républicains) of La Baule, Franck Louvrier, hastened to communicate. The city of La Baule is indeed officially selected as the base camp of the Argentine selection for the next Rugby World Cup, scheduled for 2023 in France. The competition will be held over almost two months, from the beginning of September to the end of October.
Two matches to play in Nantes
The selection of cougars, very famous in the world of rugby, will therefore benefit from the infrastructures of La Baule during the competition. Players and staff of the team will be housed on site, and will also be able to train since several sports facilities in the city will be made available to them. The South American selection chose the proximity card. She will indeed play two of her group matches at the Beaujoire stadium in Nantes, one against the United States or Chile, the second against Japan.
