The Dômes Pétanque club, based in Orcines, has concluded a particularly successful season, marked by a Puy-de-Dôme championship title for its veterans' team and strong collective performances.

The veterans of the Dômes Pétanque club, led by Pascal Lafrique, brilliantly won the title of champions of the Puy-de-Dôme first division. Undefeated in the group stages, they defeated La Combelle in the quarterfinals, Le Geyser in the semifinals, and Châtel-Guyon in the final. This victory celebrates the team's consistency, solidarity, and competitive spirit.
The women's teams also had a respectable run, with teams 2, 3, and 4 reaching the quarterfinals after flawless group stage performances. Although disappointed not to advance further, they show great promise for the future.
Another cause for satisfaction is the team led by Nicolas Peny, which is moving up to the prérégional level for the next season. After a victory against Palladuc, they will compete in the elite finals on Sunday, November 8th, in Les Bughes, with the aim of continuing their momentum.
The club is calling for strong support from its fans to encourage its players in upcoming events, emphasizing the importance of conviviality, passion, and self-improvement in sport.
