Handball Club Gien (HBC Gien) has been officially relegated to Nationale 3 (N3) for the upcoming season, following a difficult campaign in Nationale 2. The club's management confirmed the relegation, which was anticipated after a series of poor results.
In response, the club announced a change in coaching staff for the 2026-2027 season. The current head coach, whose contract was not renewed, will be replaced by a new appointee. The club has not yet named the successor, but internal candidates are being considered.
HBC Gien aims to rebuild and secure promotion back to N2. The club's president stated, 'We are focused on restructuring and preparing for a competitive season in N3.'
