Paris on February 22d, 2019 Ladies and gentlemen, Presidents, dear friends, You certainly learned Boules Sport was not in the list of four additional sports officially broadcast yesterday, Thursday, February 21st, by the Paris 2024 OCOG and you can imagine how immense is my disappointment, even if the information that some had voluntarily "leaked" for a dozen days, foreshadowed this result. My disappointment is greater because, over the months, our candidacy took more and more consistency so that the general opinion was we figured prominently among the favorite sports to get this grail for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, which, in my opinion, confirmed the interview we had with the OCOG officials in January to present our file, followed by the sending of our arguments and a beautiful video carried out, on the initiative of its director Marc Guérin, by our communication company Lunacom.

The City of Phnom Penh and the Federation of Boules and Petanque of Cambodia are ready and willing to warmly welcome the World Championships of Young & Female Petanque in November. The initial dates were scheduled from 4 to 11 November 2019 but the Cambodian Ministry of Sports wishes to change the dates and postpone them to 17 to 21 November for young people and 21 to 24 November for women. A final decision will be taken by the end of February.

The French Federation have just announced that they will compete in CEP Veterans Championship this year. Of course they have a wealth of talent to chose from, so it will not surprise you to learn that the team will be: Christian Fazzino - Jean-Marc Foyot - Fernand Riviere and Michel Briand.
