English Review

French Review

Both reviews are interesting, the French website has been around for 7 years now and the writer of the review has become a specialist in this division. This site is the number one site in France concerning women's basketball.

The English site which is not a year old is also very good, the approach is different to the French language site. For the Bilingual readers the two sites are a must read as they are not are not translations of each other.

Both sites are almost in agreement as they mention 5 sides that should challenge for the title Armentières, Charleville-Mézières, Dunkerque, Limoges and Toulouse. The French website also included Strasbourg ABC as a title contender.


The NF1 is very long, 30 weeks to be exact and the season has already started
