  • Nicolás Bono, handball player - Uprooting yourself to compete with the best in your sport
    Nov 12 2025

    Bienvenue sur French Your Moves


    Today I'm hosting Nicolás, an Argentinian handball player. He came to train in France to further his sporting career and gain a better understanding of European handball.

    Together, we talked about about getting into a French club when you don't speak the language and don't know anyone:

    • the strength of a team to integrate,
    • the differences in integration that can exist between two clubs in the same country,
    • the place of family and culture when you're far from home.
