Yverdon Sport flew this Thursday morning to Tunisia, where Alessandro Mangiarratti’s team is preparing for a nine-day training camp. In the “Journal de Tabarka”, we take you with us to the northwest of Tunisia to follow the course in its entirety.
D-1: Wednesday January 3, the players of the YS first team return to the Municipal Stadium and back to training. In the morning, coach Alessandro Mangiarratti summons his players for a final session before flying the next day to Tunisia. The principles are established: this training course must allow the group to work, reinforce its playing principles and consolidate cohesion and team spirit. The meeting point is announced for 5:30 a.m. the next morning, for a departure at 6 a.m. from Yverdon. Direction Geneva airport.
On site, the Yverdonois meet their counterparts from Lausanne-Sport, also leaving Geneva to reach Spain (Benidorm). Some players occupy their time with series or tablet games, others prefer to rest. The plane lands in Tunis, the capital, where a first stop is made to share a common meal.
These are pretty incredible conditions. The complex is very complete; it seems to be a good living space, with all the conditions and infrastructure necessary to prepare well. I didn’t really have any expectations, but it’s true that I was pleasantly surprised!

Next stop, Tabarka
The bus journey to the final destination, Tabarka, is estimated to take three hours. Unusually, a police car escorts the people of Yverdon along a relatively straight and monotonous route, made however expressive by the changing character of its landscapes (sandy deserts, mountains) or by the curiosity of the local inhabitants. Until discovering the sea and the small town of Tabarka, populated by 20,000 inhabitants. The staff of the La Cigale hotel gave us a very warm welcome; players and staff are delighted with the conditions they discover there.
The Yverdon residents were treated to an endurance game on Wednesday evening.
However, one hour late on the initially planned program. No need to cancel the training session booked as a welcome. YS players discover the complex located a two-kilometer walk from the hotel. On the program: racing and technical games. 8 p.m. marks the end of the session. The team returns to their quarters and prepares for dinner. Before a well-deserved night’s rest, after many hours spent traveling.
Tomorrow, Friday, two training sessions (morning and afternoon) await the Yverdon residents!
