Scarves in the club's colors wave in the air, while iconic chants, often accompanied by drums, resonate through the streets. This moment of camaraderie is crucial in establishing a collective atmosphere before kick-off.

Pre-Match Rituals

The traditions of Les Ty-Zefs go beyond mere gatherings. Before each match, a particular ritual takes place: supporters form a procession that marches toward the stadium. This parade, filled with songs and battle cries, is an opportunity for all to showcase their passion and unwavering support for the team. The energy emanating from this procession is palpable and sets the stage for players to approach the match with the right mindset.
