History

The historical regional rivals of Reims Champagne Basket club (RCB) and the ESPE Basket Pro club of Châlons-en-Champagne, combined forces to create a strong, financially stable, competitive ball club on the French elite professional stage. Two years following up the union, the Ligue Nationale de Basket (LNB) invited the CCRB to move up directly to the LNB Pro A through a wild-card.

Arenas

The club's home arenas are the Complexe Sportif René Tys (Reims) and the Palais des Sports Pierre de Coubertin (Châlons). Each arena hosts half of their home games.[2]

gollark: It's like if someone said "cars are vital to the modern economy, so our children need to learn how to ~~use cars~~ build cars from scratch".
gollark: Not one which needs to be taught in schools over possibly more important things (not that schools teach many important things).
gollark: Not very related, but I am quite annoyed by the government here (UK)'s push to make everyone "code" as if it's the most important thing ever.
gollark: ...
gollark: This is a hardware thing, not software.
