The Road To Dax
By Sea_point October 8 2008
With the first game of the Challenge Cup only a matter of days away, it's time to get our ducks in a row for supporters heading in to France for the big game. There's talk of 100+ heading down to Dax town for the game, which means that we should with a bit of co-ordination be able to really get behind the lads vocally in Dax.

Tickets

Looking on the Dax site, they're on sale on-line.

There are three areas, the main stand (Tribune Honneur @ €20), the smaller stand (Tribune de Face @ €15), and then standing tickets on the running track (Places Debout @ €10).



My suggestion for supporters would be to head to the Tribune de Face,

Why, because the main stand will be chocca with locals and usualy backed by their bands and it'll be very hard to get a head of steam up supporting the lads when we're outnumbered vocally...

Reserving Tickets Online

If you choose to sort out tickets through the Dax site online the link is here:- Dax Billetterie

I believe that the tickets can be collected from the ticket office on match day.

Supporting our Supporters

Can I ask that If you see other Connacht Supporters about the town, talk to them and try ensure that as many of us are grouped in the same are of the ground  as possible.

And if you pick up any useful information (Bars/ Restaurants etc...), don't be afraid to share it especially if you have a cupla focail as Francais....

Weather

Forecast is for warm weather Cool, fog in the mornings and sunshine in afternoons (sun cream is all I'm saying), 10% chance of rain for the game (so any of you planning special outfits should be safe)....
