 NF1 logo  © FFBB The NF1 basketball season is at the 1/3 mark and Charleville-Mézières is leading the table with 8 wins from 9 games.

The only team to have beaten them is Union Hainaut Basket Saint Amand (UHB-SA). Currently they are leading the championship.UHB have also just dropped one game this season but have only played 7 games at the time of writing this report.

However if they had lost two games, they would be still be in fourth position.

Charleville-Mézières consolidated their position as leader with an (87-51) victory against Rennes.

Charleville scored the first 11 points of the game and never allowed their opponents into the game. They led (24-8) by the end of the first quarter and more or less ended the game as a contest by half time leading (52-20).

Amel Bouderra once again led the scoring with 17 points and 4 assists. She also made 5 steals as Charleville-Mézières went on to win (87-51). Her team-mate Djéné Diawara contributed 15 points and picked up 12 rebounds in the victory.

Dunkerque who are second in the table suffered their second defeat (72-75) of the season against Nice BC 06. They went into the final quarter leading (58-49) and stretched their lead to 13 points with eight minutes to play.

Nice then went on a 14-0 run finishing with back to back three-pointers to take the advantage (66-65) for the first time since the opening score during the first period.

The game was tied (72-72) with 18 seconds to play. Yet a three-pointer by Barbara Cousin was enough for Nice to win the game.

Illkirch-Graffenstaden are currently in third position but they will not be happy with the way they are playing at the moment.

They beat the CFBB (59-55) but spent most of the game running after the score and had to thank Lina Brazdeïkyte and Céline Schmitt-Sendner with 26 and 24 points each.Florine Basque fired in 23 points for the CFBB.

The top 4 teams at the moment playing NF1 basketball have not built a sufficient lead to start taking about play-off ambition.
