Les Flash de la Courneuve
The most storied team in France over the past two decades, the Flash has not won a title since 2011. The team is a perennial playoff contender though and this year will be no exception.The 2000s will forever those of Flash with 7 titles. And the 2010s?
The team has gone in a slightly different direction this year adding mainly French players to the squad. Most have been recruited from the lower division teams from the Paris region.
But will it be enough to stay at the level of the best teams in the National Division 1? That remains to be seen…
