Coupe de France féminine : les affiches du premier tour
The Women's French Cup is set to resume in a few weeks, with the draw for the first round having been conducted by the FFBB. This opening round, scheduled for Saturday, September 19th at 8 PM (subject to change), will feature a mix of teams from different leagues.
Among the teams qualified for these Round of 64 (32e de finale) matches are the 13 teams competing in LF2 (excluding Pôle France), along with La Tronche Meylan, the team promoted to La Boulangère Wonderligue after the 2025-2026 season. La Tronche Meylan will be travelling to Monaco for their match.
The rules for the French Cup dictate that matches are played on the home court of the team competing at the lower league level. If both teams are in the same league, the home team is determined by the first draw. Importantly, no handicaps are applied in this competition.
