For the FFPJP, “This announcement allows, on the one hand, to create an emulation that we hope will be productive within the group of pre-selected candidates and to increase their motivation tenfold for the competitions to come. And on the other hand, to highlight the French women’s team and therefore the Women’s Pétanque as the FFPJP wishes “ The final team will be announced following the World Championships in Benin which are held in September.
